How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Laurens

Wet cardboard boxes of stored items stay damp for days. Move them onto a dry surface, or leave them for the crew if the floor is still wet.

1. Pump out the standing water

   Carpet gets repeated passes with a weighted wand, because wash water clings to the backing. Hard floors get squeegeed toward the pump intake or the drain.

2. Map the moisture

   A thermal camera shows cool, wet patches that the eye misses. The meter then confirms whether a patch holds water or only looks cool.

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

   The technician returns each day to read the same spots. Equipment moves or gets added wherever a reading stalls.
