Yes. Gaps at the sink base and continuous flooring can carry water to neighboring units. The technician tests beyond the visibly wet cabinet.
Will all the cabinets have to come out?
The crew measures each affected section. Some assemblies dry through targeted access, while badly swollen or trapped wet material may need removal.
Can kitchen sink cabinet water damage cleanup include the floor?
Yes. A sink leak can pass beneath flooring and into the subfloor, so readings should cover that area.
