How Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Works in Potomac

1. Remove accessible sink water

2. Measure the hidden wet area

   A meter checks cabinet panels, wallboard and floor seams against dry reference materials.

3. Create drying access

   A cabinet toe kick can conceal water; safe access lets the crew extract and dry beneath it.

4. Dry and confirm progress

   Recorded followup checks show when cabinet backing and floor layers reach a dry condition.

• Move dry household products out of the cabinet without disturbing wiring.
• Take photos of swollen panels, water marks and affected flooring.
