How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Fulton

Moisture beneath floor finish can linger after the sink valve closes. Prolonged dampness raises damage risk, so the floor edge needs checking.

1. Extract the sink water

   A technician starts at the visible puddle, then pulls water from accessible floor edges.

2. Map moisture around the fixture

   The floor edge, toe kick and lower wall receive separate moisture checks.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   A swollen base panel may be removed if it cannot be dried cleanly.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   A technician compares affected surfaces with dry references before closing the job.
