How Refrigerator Leak Water Damage Works in Franklin

A closed cabinet void can stay humid long after surface wiping. Moisture in a wood subfloor should be measured promptly.

1. Extract liquid water

   An ice maker tube can release a steady trickle behind a cabinet. Extraction begins at the visible puddle and continues along the path into nearby flooring.

2. Trace the wet layers

   A damp ceiling below the kitchen can indicate water between joists. Technicians check both sides of the assembly to locate the materials holding moisture.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   Ceiling drywall below the refrigerator may sag after absorbing water. The crew checks its condition and removes damaged sections when necessary.

4. Verify the dry-out

   The lower ceiling cavity needs its own final readings after a kitchen leak. The crew records those results before any rebuild work is quoted.
