1. Remove the overflow

   Standing drain water is removed with suitable extraction equipment. The crew protects unaffected contents while defining the wet boundary.

2. Measure hidden moisture

   The crew traces moisture under trim and near storage racks. Those checks keep a surface-level cleanup from missing wet structure.

3. Handle affected materials

   When water sits behind a cabinet toe kick, the technician may open the area for cleaning and airflow. Removal decisions follow actual conditions.

4. Dry and verify

   Dehumidification removes moisture from the room air while air movement supports evaporation. Daily checks shape the setup.
