How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Roslindale

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

   Recovered wash water goes into the machine's tank and out to a proper disposal point. It is never sent toward another room or a storm drain.

2. Map the moisture

   A ceiling below the laundry area gets its own readings. Wet insulation and drywall there often decide whether the dry-out is a one-floor or a two-floor job.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Wash water is gray water, so the crew washes hard surfaces and applies an EPA-registered antimicrobial where the standard calls for it.

4. Dry and verify

   When every reading meets the target, the crew removes the equipment and hands over the drying log. That log goes into the claim file.
