How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Colton

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

   Truck-mounted units handle large volumes, and portable extractors reach into closets and up stairs. The crew picks the machine that fits the doorway and the depth.

2. Map the moisture

   The technician tests cabinet bases, door casings and the baseboard run. Water travels along wall bases, so readings continue past the visible stain.

3. Clean and pull what cannot dry

   Sewage-tainted water from a drain backup is Category 3. The crew contains the area, wears protective gear and removes porous materials the water touched.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers go onto the wet surfaces and LGR dehumidifiers pull water from the air. The crew sizes both to the room's drying class.
