How Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Works in Rensselaer

1. Remove accessible sink water

   The crew extracts water from the cabinet base and adjoining floor, then checks where the flow crossed room edges.

2. Measure the hidden wet area

   A lower ceiling stain prompts checks of the cavity below the original sink leak.

3. Create drying access

   Cabinet components that cannot be dried in place are documented before removal.

4. Dry and confirm progress

   Air movement and dehumidification run with repeated material readings until drying goals are met.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• 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.
