How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Union Point

A musty smell after an overflow can mean moisture is hiding behind the baseboards or under the vinyl. The technician checks with a meter before anything is closed up.

1. Pump out the standing water

   A sump-style pump handles deep pooling in a basement laundry corner. Shallow films on upstairs floors get a wand and a squeegee instead.

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

   Cabinet kick plates are pulled so the cavity behind them can breathe. Particleboard cabinets that stayed wet may be removed and listed in the scope.

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.
