How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Columbus

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 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

   Final measurements support the transition from cleanup to finish work.
