How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Alton

Sink water can soak wallboard through pipe openings. The crew checks that cavity because prolonged dampness can damage porous material.

1. Extract the sink water

   A technician starts at the visible puddle, then pulls water from accessible floor edges.

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.
