Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. A crew extracts drain water early and checks where moisture moved beneath finishes. Checking under trim can reveal damp material missed by a quick surface wipe.
-
Remove the overflow
The response team clears standing water around the drain and adjoining floor. Safe photographs show where the overflow had reached.
