-
Pump out the laundry water
A wet vacuum handles shallow films on vinyl, while a submersible pump deals with an inch or more. The crew matches the tool to the floor.
-
Map where the water went
Readings go beyond the visible stain, into the toe-kicks, the wall bases and the room next door. The map becomes the plan for equipment.
-
Open what stays wet
Wet insulation holds water against framing. Pulling it out lets the studs dry and keeps moisture from sitting in the wall.
-
Dry and confirm
Once the log shows dry, the equipment leaves. The repair contractor then works from a clear record of what was wet and what dried.
