How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Mcmechen

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet cabinet board. The technician measures hidden moisture so drying reaches more than the visible puddle.

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

   A dry reference helps the crew judge which materials were affected by the leak.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

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

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Final measurements support the transition from cleanup to finish work.
