How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Coulters

Do not seal a wet floor under new flooring or paint. Trapped moisture causes trouble later. Wait for the final readings.

1. Pump out the standing water

   The crew sets submersible pumps and extraction wands where the water is deepest. The technician confirms the supply is closed and the power is safe before any equipment is plugged in.

2. Map the moisture

   The technician runs a pinless meter across the floor, the lower wall and any ceiling below. Each reading goes onto a sketch of the room.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Swollen baseboard and the bottom strip of soaked drywall are cut out cleanly. The crew takes out only what the readings show will not dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Equipment placement changes as the room dries. The technician moves air movers away from areas that read dry and toward areas that lag.
