How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Franklin

A musty smell after an overflow can mean moisture is hiding behind the baseboards or under the vinyl. The technician checks with a meter before anything is closed up.

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

   The map sets the drying class, from 1 to 4, which controls how much equipment the room needs. A small spill on tile is Class 1, and soaked plaster or hardwood climbs higher.

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

   IICRC S500, the industry drying standard, sets a target close to a dry reference taken from unaffected material. The crew does not stop at a floor that only feels dry.
