How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Lester

Closed spaces dry slowly. Cabinet bases, closets and wall cavities need air movement or a small opening to release water, which is why the crew opens only what the readings show is wet.

1. Pump out the standing water

   The operator keeps hoses off stair edges and out of walkways. Cords stay up off the wet floor, and equipment runs from a protected outlet.

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

   A closed cabinet base or wall cavity gets a small opening or a vent so air can reach the trapped water.
