How Washing Machine Leak Water Damage Works in Sentinel

Insulation in a wet wall holds water against the framing. Left alone, it stays wet well past the point where the surface looks normal. The crew opens the cavity when readings call for it.

1. Pump out the laundry water

   Water is lifted from low spots first, then from the edges of the room. Removing it from the lowest point stops it from seeping further.

2. Map where the water went

   The crew compares each wet reading with a dry spot in the same house. That reference sets the drying target for each material.

3. Open what stays wet

   A cabinet toe-kick gets removed so air can reach the wet area behind it. The crew puts it back after drying, or marks it for the repair contractor.

4. Dry and confirm

   Dry means numbers, not feel. The final readings show every material at or near the reference, and the log goes into the claim file.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Renters have a different setup. The landlord's policy usually covers the building, and the tenant's own policy covers belongings. Both sides benefit from photos that show what was wet and when.

• Keep the failed hose or valve until the adjuster sees it
• Ask the insurer whether drain backup needs an endorsement
• Photograph the ceiling below an upstairs laundry

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
