How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Leighton

Moisture beneath floor finish can linger after the sink valve closes. Prolonged dampness raises damage risk, so the floor edge needs checking.

1. Extract the sink water

   A technician starts at the visible puddle, then pulls water from accessible floor edges.

2. Map moisture around the fixture

   A visible stain is compared with readings so hidden water is not missed.

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.
