How Kitchen Sink Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup Works in Opelousas

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

   Readings from cabinet and floor layers determine equipment placement, not the size of the puddle alone.

3. Create drying access

   The team evaluates floor covering and underlayment before deciding whether an opening is necessary.

4. Dry and confirm progress

   A final set of readings helps the owner plan cabinet and flooring work after mitigation.

• Move dry household products out of the cabinet without disturbing wiring.
• Take photos of swollen panels, water marks and affected flooring.
