How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Empire

A towel removes surface liquid but cannot dry a swollen cabinet core. Restoration workers expose trapped moisture and track progress with readings.

1. Extract the sink water

   Used drain water may require cleaning controls as the crew removes it from the cabinet.

2. Map moisture around the fixture

   A visible stain is compared with readings so hidden water is not missed.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   The technician documents any cabinet or wall material removed for drying.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Equipment placement changes as moisture leaves cabinet, wall and floor layers.
