How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Raritan

Anything that stays wet past the first two days turns into a bigger job. Pad and drywall that might have dried in place can become tear-out.

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 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

   Soap film is rinsed from floors and wall bases. Left behind, it stays tacky and holds both dirt and moisture.

4. Dry and verify

   The technician returns each day to read the same spots. Equipment moves or gets added wherever a reading stalls.

• Keep the appliance technician's written finding on the cause
