Quick action in the first two days changes the whole job. Extraction takes minutes while a ruined subfloor takes weeks to fix. Start the dry-out before the damp materials start growing anything.
-
Pump out the laundry water
Gray discharge water gets handled with gloves and boots. The crew removes it from the floor, then treats the surface with an antimicrobial.

Map where the water went
A thermal camera flags cold, wet patches behind finished surfaces. The meter then confirms whether the cold area holds water.
-
Open what stays wet
A cabinet toe-kick gets removed so air can reach the wet area behind it. The crew puts it back after drying, or marks it for the repair contractor.
-
Dry and confirm
Air movers push dry air across the wet surfaces while LGR dehumidifiers pull moisture out of the room. The crew changes the setup as the readings change.
