How Ice Maker Leak Cleanup Works in Great Lakes

A closed cabinet base slows evaporation. The technician checks the cavity before placing drying equipment. Opening a covered space can let targeted airflow reach its back surface.

1. Stop the source safely

   The water damage crew checks whether the kitchen supply is closed. Continued discharge changes the extraction plan. The source status belongs in the job record before extraction proceeds.

2. Extract reachable water

   A cabinet base may hold water behind its front panel. The crew checks for access before drying it. A wet base can hide liquid behind a removable front panel.

3. Map concealed moisture

   The assessor follows the water path past the refrigerator. A dry-looking surface may still cover a wet subfloor. Adjacent flooring is checked so the drying scope follows the spread.

4. Dry and verify

   Cabinet and floor layers are assessed again after equipment runs. The endpoint is based on readings. Drying completion depends on material conditions rather than the calendar.
