Professional Water Extraction in a Wilmington Laundry Room

Whether it is from loose sealants, foundation damage, or other factors, garage flooding can be very damaging to the home. Without rapid mitigation techniques, this damage can put homeowners and their assets at risk of mold, warping, and other damage that can compromise their safety and living standards. However, there are professionals available to help.

If your Wilmington home requires water extraction, certified SERVPRO professionals are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, for cleanup. Not only is your local SERVPRO dedicated to serving the community with disaster mitigation techniques that are second to none, but they also offer residential, commercial, and general contracting services (license #1992104829) to aid homeowners in restoring their home to a preloss condition.

Handling Washing Machine Leaks

• Shut off the water. To prevent further water damage, empty your washer and shut off the water supply connected to the machine.
• Inspect the machine. Washers can have leaks from various sources, with some of the most common being the water supply hoses in the back of the unit, internal hoses, and the pump. Check hoses carefully for mineral deposits and rust that can indicate a leak.
• Replace components. Your local hardware store is likely to have compatible replacement parts for many components of a washing machine, including hoses. Consider braided cables, which are designed to be more resistant to leaking. Replace hose washers and other hardware that connects your appliance to the water supply. For pump replacements, use a car jack or 2x4s to angle the machine and prevent tipping during repairs. If the belt is burnt or worn down to its threads, replace it as well.

How SERVPRO Restores Structures

When water-related disasters strike in your home, SERVPRO technicians can use their knowledge and skills to restore your laundry room. This crew has a variety of water extraction tools available, ranging from suction pads and rovers to pull moisture out of carpet and pad to extraction wands that are designed to pull water out of nooks and crannies.
