How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Gallitzin

A sealed vinyl floor keeps water trapped against the plywood below. That layer can stay wet for days with no sign above. Meters find it, and a drying system pulls it out.

1. Pump out the laundry water

   Gray discharge water gets handled with gloves and boots. The crew removes it from the floor, then treats the surface with an antimicrobial.

2. Map where the water went

   A moisture meter and a thermal camera show the wet zone. The technician marks the edge of the wet area on the floor and the walls.

3. Open what stays wet

   Sheet vinyl sometimes gets lifted along one edge so the plywood below can breathe. The technician decides how much comes up from the readings.

4. Dry and confirm

   Air movers push dry air across the wet surfaces while LGR dehumidifiers pull moisture out of the room. The crew changes the setup as the readings change.
