A Tampa homeowner called us in regards to a washing machine that overflowed causing a small amount of water damage in a 2 story condo. The Tampa homeowner decided to do a load of laundry. The washing machine is located on the 2nd floor of her Tampa condo. The washing machine drain was plugged causing water to overflow from the washing machine and end up on the floors and walls. Since the washing machine was on the 2nd story of this condo, water also ended up in the walls and ceilings of the first floor. With our infrared leak detection equipment we were easily able to tell how far the water damage had traveled and which walls and ceilings were wet. Just because walls don’t look to be wet, they could possibly contain moisture. If this water is not dried out effectively, mold growth can begin. Once mold growth starts in Tampa properties after the effects of water damage, it can be very hard to remove.
