Remove the overflow
A mitigation team begins at the lowest pooled spots. The technician records the water depth and affected surfaces before material removal.
-
Measure hidden moisture

-
Handle affected materials
When water sits behind a cabinet toe kick, the technician may open the area for cleaning and airflow. Removal decisions follow actual conditions.

Dry and verify
