How Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Works in Epes

A lower ceiling stain prompts checks of the cavity below the original sink leak.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
A sink base packed with stored items can hide a long wet path. The technician moves through the affected area with a meter and plans drying around the actual moisture.
- 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.
