What Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Includes in Wikieup

Cabinet board can swell at raw edges after kitchen sink cabinet water damage cleanup. The crew measures the base, back panel and toe kick to locate retained moisture.

The cabinet floor may show a stain, but water often follows its lowest route. It can settle under the toe kick, travel toward a dishwasher opening, or soak the subfloor beneath a kitchen finish. Composite cabinet panels swell quickly when their edges absorb water and may not regain their strength after drying.

How Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Works in Wikieup

1. Extract the sink water
