Clean and pull what cannot dry

Washer Overflow Cleanup Questions in Claremont
Does a drain backup in a Claremont laundry area change the job?
Yes. Water that rose out of the standpipe may be Category 3, so the crew contains the area, wears protective gear and removes porous materials the water touched. A plumber clears the drain.
What happens to wet rugs and laundry baskets?
Washable fabric can be laundered once a working machine is back. Rugs are cleaned or discarded depending on the water type, and soaked pad is usually thrown out. Photograph items before they go.
Which equipment stays in the Claremont house while it dries?
Air movers, LGR dehumidifiers and sometimes floor drying mats or small heaters. The crew sizes them to the wet area. Keep the cords untouched and the equipment running.
What is Category 2 water, and does a washer make it?
Category 2 is gray water with some contamination. Wash water, with detergent and body soils, usually fits. The crew cleans and sanitizes the surfaces and often discards soaked pad.
