Long story short, there was a rag was in laundry tub and it blocked the drain and the washing machine emptied into it and well, yeah, it overflowed. I'm lucky the washing machine somehow sensed this, since when I opened it there was more water left to drain but it had just stopped. I put a big fan and dehumidifier to dry the area. The floor is a drycore subfloor system, so a lot of water fell against the block wall and under the drycore as opposed to over it, most of it went to the drain and whatever went over the drycore is all dry. The chipboard seems to be holding up, no bulging or anything. I think I really caught it on time. The bottom plate of the framing is treated as well, so I'm not too worried about that.
But problem is, now it smells like mold, it's a very moisy type smell. I have a big fan and dehumidifier running 24/7 as it's still wet under the drycore but I'm afraid it might be too late now. Anything I can do without having to rip it all up? Do you think that smell might just go away once it fully dries? It's only been like a day. Wondering if there's anything I should do now, or just wait and see?
