How Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Works in Shandaken

1. Remove accessible sink water

   Standing water around the vanity comes out before drying equipment starts. The technician also checks the space beneath the cabinet.

2. Measure the hidden wet area

   A meter checks cabinet panels, wallboard and floor seams against dry reference materials.

3. Create drying access

   The contractor opens trapped areas only as needed to expose damp material and protect sound finishes.

4. Dry and confirm progress

   Equipment remains based on measurements, not on whether the cabinet feels dry to a hand.

• 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.
