How Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Works in Wilmerding

1. Remove accessible sink water

   Water from the broken faucet hose is pulled from reachable surfaces, reducing the load left in the structure.

2. Measure the hidden wet area

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

3. Create drying access

   Swollen panels or a closed void may need removal so air can reach wet building layers.

4. Dry and confirm progress

   The technician tracks humidity and wood moisture, adjusting equipment when the loss does not improve.

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.

• Close the sink shutoff or main valve when it is safe to do so.
• 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.
