What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

If wash water soaked a cabinet base, surface air alone may not reach it. The West Wardsboro specialist tests retained dampness because mold risk rises during the first 24 to 48 hours. A swollen cabinet toe kick may signal water behind it. The crew checks the base and adjoining wall before choosing selective removal or drying in place.

• Stop the washer cycle only if the controls can be reached from dry, stable footing.
• Close accessible hot and cold supply valves without reaching through water or behind a live appliance.
• Avoid touching the plug, cord or breaker from a wet area; an electrician handles unsafe power isolation.
• Keep children and pets out of wet rooms, especially beneath a dripping ceiling.
• Photograph visible damage from a safe spot and tell building management if another unit may be affected.
