How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Caribou

A towel removes surface liquid but cannot dry a swollen cabinet core. Restoration workers expose trapped moisture and track progress with readings.

1. Extract the sink water

   Used drain water may require cleaning controls as the crew removes it from the cabinet.

2. Map moisture around the fixture

   The floor edge, toe kick and lower wall receive separate moisture checks.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   The technician documents any cabinet or wall material removed for drying.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Final measurements support the transition from cleanup to finish work.
