How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in New Kent

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

   The operator works from the lowest spot outward, so water does not run back across cleared floor. Furniture goes up on blocks to keep the legs out of the puddles.

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

   Soap film is rinsed from floors and wall bases. Left behind, it stays tacky and holds both dirt and moisture.

4. Dry and verify

   Floor drying mats can pull water up from hardwood or from a wet subfloor. The crew uses them where air movers alone are too slow.
