What Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Includes in Rifton

The faucet connector needs a plumbing professional; a soaked toe kick needs a drying plan. Call for water cleanup as soon as wet materials are noticed in Rifton.

- 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.
