How Ice Maker Leak Cleanup Works in North Franklin

Hardwood can swell when liquid reaches the underside. Early moisture mapping helps show the true floor area affected. The underside of a board may need longer than its exposed face.

1. Stop the source safely

   The owner keeps away from wet outlets while a qualified trade addresses any electrical hazard. Extraction begins when access is safe. Wet cords remain untouched until the electrical condition is addressed.

2. Extract reachable water

   A cabinet base may hold water behind its front panel. The crew checks for access before drying it. A wet base can hide liquid behind a removable front panel.

3. Map concealed moisture

   Moisture measurements identify whether cabinet bases or wall edges need further access. The assessor records the area that needs further drying access.

4. Dry and verify

   Wet material that cannot dry in place may be removed. The remaining assembly receives controlled airflow. Open cavities receive readings before they are closed again.
