How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Pine Lake

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet cabinet board. The technician measures hidden moisture so drying reaches more than the visible puddle.

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

   Equipment placement changes as moisture leaves cabinet, wall and floor layers.
