How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Meldrim

A towel removes surface liquid but cannot dry a swollen cabinet core. Restoration workers expose trapped moisture and track progress with readings.

1. Extract the sink water

   Accessible moisture comes out first, allowing the drying team to see what remains trapped.

2. Map moisture around the fixture

   The floor edge, toe kick and lower wall receive separate moisture checks.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   Wet finish layers can require careful opening before the subfloor dries.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Air movement and dehumidification continue while daily readings trend toward a dry target.
