How Washer Overflow Cleanup Works in Fort Drum

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

   The crew sets submersible pumps and extraction wands where the water is deepest. The technician confirms the supply is closed and the power is safe before any equipment is plugged in.

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

   Swollen baseboard and the bottom strip of soaked drywall are cut out cleanly. The crew takes out only what the readings show will not dry.

4. Dry and verify

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

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Frost can lock a drain or a vent. Wash water that cannot leave the house backs up through the standpipe.
