Wet padding or unsalvageable particleboard is removed when it blocks structural drying.

Air movement and dehumidification run with repeated material readings until drying goals are met.

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.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Changing winter temperatures can expose a weak fitting. Water cleanup follows the leak regardless of the weather that preceded it.
