How Sink Leak Cleanup Works in Chimayo

Moisture beneath floor finish can linger after the sink valve closes. Prolonged dampness raises damage risk, so the floor edge needs checking.

1. Extract the sink water

2. Map moisture around the fixture

   The floor edge, toe kick and lower wall receive separate moisture checks.

3. Expose wet cabinet materials

   Wet finish layers can require careful opening before the subfloor dries.

4. Dry and confirm the result

   Air movement and dehumidification continue while daily readings trend toward a dry target.
