How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Tickfaw

Insulation in a wet wall holds water against the framing. Left alone, it stays wet well past the point where the surface looks normal. The crew opens the cavity when readings call for it.

1. Pump out the laundry water

   Carpet gets a weighted extractor that squeezes water out of the pad. Any bulk water left behind goes into the air as vapor and slows drying.

2. Map where the water went

   Notes and photos from the mapping go into the job file. They show the adjuster the starting condition.

3. Open what stays wet

   Drywall that has wicked water upward may need a section cut out. Small holes near the floor let the cavity dry without opening the whole wall.

4. Dry and confirm

   Dry means numbers, not feel. The final readings show every material at or near the reference, and the log goes into the claim file.
