How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Dows

Fast source control limits additional water. The restoration crew still tests the existing wet footprint and dries it before prolonged dampness causes further damage.

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

2. Map moisture around the fixture

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

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   Access beneath a toe kick lets the drying team address water beside the floor.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   The crew records moisture progress and removes equipment when the drying goal is met.
