How Ice Maker Leak Cleanup Works in Chatham

A dry-looking tile surface can cover a damp subfloor. Measurements keep the work focused on actual moisture. A subfloor check answers more than touch alone can reveal.

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

   The crew removes liquid from the Chatham floor before it continues soaking into seams. Cabinet edges receive attention. The operator then checks transitions where water could cross into another room.

3. Map concealed moisture

   Floor joints can hide damp material after the puddle disappears. The Chatham technician tests nearby layers. A reading at the wall base helps define the boundary of the loss.

4. Dry and verify

   Wet material that cannot dry in place may be removed. The remaining assembly receives controlled airflow. Open cavities receive readings before they are closed again.
