How Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Works in Dornsife

1. Remove accessible sink water

   A portable extractor reaches the sink area while the crew identifies wet flooring beyond the splash zone.

2. Measure the hidden wet area

   The technician follows elevated readings beyond the visible stain to outline the drying footprint.

3. Create drying access

   Cabinet components that cannot be dried in place are documented before removal.

4. Dry and confirm progress

   Air movement and dehumidification run with repeated material readings until drying goals are met.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Water trapped beneath a floor finish may not be visible. The crew checks the substrate so wet material is not covered during reconstruction.

• Avoid using a disposal, outlet or appliance in the wet area.
• Move dry household products out of the cabinet without disturbing wiring.
• Take photos of swollen panels, water marks and affected flooring.
• Call a plumber for the source and call 24/7 for extraction and drying.
