How Ice Maker Leak Cleanup Works in Ketchikan

Water beneath a refrigerator can spread where airflow is poor. Prompt access and drying limit long contact with porous materials. A moisture map separates wet material from nearby dry construction.

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 operator focuses on standing water first. Less liquid remains to feed the subfloor after extraction. Floor edges receive another look after the obvious pool disappears.

3. Map concealed moisture

   A ceiling below the kitchen receives attention when water travels between floors. Unsafe sagging material stays off limits. Ceiling insulation may hold water above a visible mark.

4. Dry and verify

   The drying setup changes if a cavity remains wet. The crew documents measurements before equipment leaves. Equipment stays in place while material readings still call for drying.
