How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Pontiac

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

   Soapy water foams in the wand and the tank. The operator empties and rinses often so suction stays strong, and runs extra passes on the floor.

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

   Detergent residue is flushed from porous grout and baseboard with clean water, then extracted. Rinsing is what keeps a floor from feeling sticky once it dries.

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.
