How Refrigerator Leak Water Damage Works in Stephen

A closed cabinet void can stay humid long after surface wiping. Moisture in a wood subfloor should be measured promptly.

1. Extract liquid water

   Water spreading from the refrigerator can pass through open floor seams. The crew vacuums standing water and checks the area beneath the appliance before placing drying equipment.

2. Trace the wet layers

   The seam beside an appliance can carry water under adjacent cabinets. A technician checks the cabinet base, floor finish and exposed substrate individually.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   Waterlogged underlayment beneath laminate may not dry in place. The team documents and removes affected material as the drying plan requires.

4. 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.
