How Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Works in Madison

1. Remove accessible sink water

   Water from the broken faucet hose is pulled from reachable surfaces, reducing the load left in the structure.

2. Measure the hidden wet area

   Moisture mapping shows whether the toe kick or subfloor holds water after the surface is wiped.

3. Create drying access

   The contractor opens trapped areas only as needed to expose damp material and protect sound finishes.

4. Dry and confirm progress

   Equipment remains based on measurements, not on whether the cabinet feels dry to a hand.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. A closed sink cabinet can hold moisture against wood and drywall, so the crew checks it promptly.

• Close the sink shutoff or main valve when it is safe to do so.
• Avoid using a disposal, outlet or appliance in the wet area.
• Move dry household products out of the cabinet without disturbing wiring.
• Take photos of swollen panels, water marks and affected flooring.
• Call a plumber for the source and call 24/7 for extraction and drying.
