Damp backing paper can support mold growth after water soaks through drywall. The enclosed toe kick may retain humidity after the floor is wiped.
-
Extract liquid water
Liquid trapped against a cabinet toe kick can keep wicking upward. Technicians extract the water they can reach and mark where concealed moisture needs further attention.
-
Trace the wet layers
A moisture meter can reveal wet plywood beneath a floor that looks clean. The technician marks the boundary of the affected subfloor and checks it again during drying.

Remove what cannot dry
A swollen toe kick can conceal a damp cabinet base. Selective removal may expose the affected area without disturbing dry sections of the kitchen.

Verify the dry-out
A clean-looking floor can still contain moisture below its finish. Technicians compare follow-up measurements with the drying targets for that material.
