How Refrigerator Leak Water Damage Works in Star Tannery

Water beneath a floor needs drying even if the finish looks clean. Damp insulation below a kitchen may need removal.

1. Extract liquid water

   Water spreading from the refrigerator can pass through open floor seams. The crew vacuums standing water and checks the area beneath the appliance before placing drying equipment.

2. Trace the wet layers

   The seam beside an appliance can carry water under adjacent cabinets. A technician checks the cabinet base, floor finish and exposed substrate individually.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   Porous trim beside a persistent leak can remain saturated after surface extraction. The technician checks whether it can dry or needs removal.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Air movement is adjusted as wet sections change during the job. Documented moisture trends show which area still needs attention.
