Comprehensive Cabinet Water Damage Repair Services
Cabinet Leak Cleanup Restoration
A leak under a sink or behind a dishwasher is traced to the fitting or hose that failed, and the cabinet is cleaned and dried.
Emergency Cabinet Drying Response
The sooner a wet cabinet is emptied and dried, the more likely it is that the box and doors can be saved.
Kitchen Cabinet Water Extraction
Kitchen cabinets hide water underneath. Toe kicks are often removed so water trapped between the cabinet and the subfloor can be extracted.
Wet Cabinet Drying Services
Cabinet bases, back panels and the wall behind them are dried with directed airflow and dehumidifiers, with readings taken daily.
Swollen Cabinet Door Repair
Particleboard doors and shelves that swelled usually do not shrink back, so they are noted for replacement. Solid wood doors may flatten as they dry.
When to Consider Cabinet Water Damage Repair for Your Cabinets
Condensation Inside Cabinets
Water droplets inside the cabinet can come from sweating cold pipes or a slow leak.
Water Pooling in Bases
Any standing water in a cabinet base needs extraction right away, before it soaks into the wood.
Increased Humidity in Kitchen
A kitchen or bathroom that stays humid can keep cabinets damp even without a direct leak.
Peeling Laminate or Veneer
Laminate or veneer that lifts, bubbles or peels has water underneath it.
How Cabinet Water Damage Repair Works in Franklin
Step 1: Safety and Water Stop
The supply valve is shut off and power to the dishwasher or disposal is turned off.
Step 2: Water Extraction
Water is removed from the cabinet bases, under the toe kicks and along the wall behind them.
Step 3: Deep Drying and Monitoring
Drying equipment runs until readings on cabinets and subfloor are back to normal.
Step 4: Preventive Treatment
Cabinet bases that stayed wet can be cleaned and treated before items go back in.
