How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Finlayson

Do not seal a wet floor under new flooring or paint. Trapped moisture causes trouble later. Wait for the final readings.

1. Pump out the standing water

   The operator works from the lowest spot outward, so water does not run back across cleared floor. Furniture goes up on blocks to keep the legs out of the puddles.

2. Map the moisture

   Readings are taken in a grid, not in one spot. A grid shows the edge of the wet zone and gives later visits the same places to compare.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Swollen baseboard and the bottom strip of soaked drywall are cut out cleanly. The crew takes out only what the readings show will not dry.

4. Dry and verify

   IICRC S500, the industry drying standard, sets a target close to a dry reference taken from unaffected material. The crew does not stop at a floor that only feels dry.
