How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Hancock

Cabinet doors left open improve airflow but do not reach a sealed back panel. The drying team opens necessary areas and verifies the moisture level.

1. Extract the sink water

   Local pros collect water near the toe kick and check whether it reached the next room.

2. Map moisture around the fixture

   A visible stain is compared with readings so hidden water is not missed.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   A swollen base panel may be removed if it cannot be dried cleanly.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Air movement and dehumidification continue while daily readings trend toward a dry target.
