-
Trace the wet layers
Water can slip behind the baseboard beside a refrigerator. The crew follows readings along the wall and cabinet edge instead of stopping at the visible stain.

Remove what cannot dry
Waterlogged underlayment beneath laminate may not dry in place. The team documents and removes affected material as the drying plan requires.

Refrigerator Leak Water Damage Questions in Garrett
What controls drying time after a kitchen leak in Garrett?
The depth of water, the materials involved and the amount of hidden moisture all matter. Daily readings determine progress. Call (888) 621-2041 to start extraction and measured drying.
Why record moisture readings after a Garrett refrigerator leak?
Readings identify the wet boundary and show whether equipment is working. The crew can compare each material over time and provide a drying record. Call (888) 621-2041 before moisture spreads farther.
