How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Slater

A towel removes surface liquid but cannot dry a swollen cabinet core. Restoration workers expose trapped moisture and track progress with readings.

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

   The technician tests cabinet board, wall openings and flooring to set a measured boundary.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   The crew opens a trapped area when airflow cannot reach moisture behind it.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Equipment placement changes as moisture leaves cabinet, wall and floor layers.
