How Laminate Vinyl and LVP Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Barbeau

1. Remove standing water

   A technician works from the wettest section toward unaffected rooms to contain the spread of water.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   A room by room moisture map helps place drying gear where it will matter.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Laminate that has swollen at the seams often cannot be dried back to its former shape.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers encourage evaporation while dehumidifiers capture moisture from the air.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Stopping the source limits new water, but it does not dry existing saturation. The extraction crew removes liquid water and measures the materials left behind.

• Stop the water at a safe shutoff if the source is inside.
• Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
• Photograph laminate cores before moving affected items.
• Keep children and pets away from standing or dirty water.
• Move dry valuables out of the path without walking through water.
