How Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Works in Elk River

1. Remove accessible sink water

   Water from the broken faucet hose is pulled from reachable surfaces, reducing the load left in the structure.

2. Measure the hidden wet area

   Moisture mapping shows whether the toe kick or subfloor holds water after the surface is wiped.

3. Create drying access

   Swollen panels or a closed void may need removal so air can reach wet building layers.

4. Dry and confirm progress

   A final set of readings helps the owner plan cabinet and flooring work after mitigation.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A wiped floor is not proof that the cabinet backing is dry. Trapped moisture can support mold growth; meter readings show where structural drying is still needed.

• 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.
