How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Aptos

Moisture beneath floor finish can linger after the sink valve closes. Prolonged dampness raises damage risk, so the floor edge needs checking.

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

   Access beneath a toe kick lets the drying team address water beside the floor.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Final measurements support the transition from cleanup to finish work.
