Water from a washer, sink or appliance drain can carry soil and microbes into occupied rooms. Water can move into porous flooring, wall bases, cabinets and contents. Jobs involving washing machine gray water, sink gray water cleanup and water damage around the affected room need a check beyond the visible puddle.
Water under a cabinet can move through seams before anyone notices. The plumbing fix and the structural dry-out are separate tasks. Prompt checks help define the actual dry-out area.
