How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in New Athens

Used drain water can carry residue into a cabinet base. The cleanup crew removes unsalvageable material and sanitizes affected surfaces after extraction.

1. Extract the sink water

   Accessible moisture comes out first, allowing the drying team to see what remains trapped.

2. Map moisture around the fixture

   A visible stain is compared with readings so hidden water is not missed.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   Wet finish layers can require careful opening before the subfloor dries.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   The crew records moisture progress and removes equipment when the drying goal is met.
