How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Stem

Cabinet doors left open improve airflow but do not reach a sealed back panel. The drying team opens necessary areas and verifies the moisture level.

1. Extract the sink water

   Accessible moisture comes out first, allowing the drying team to see what remains trapped.

2. Map moisture around the fixture

   A dry reference helps the crew judge which materials were affected by the leak.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   Wet finish layers can require careful opening before the subfloor dries.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Final measurements support the transition from cleanup to finish work.
