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

   The seam beside an appliance can carry water under adjacent cabinets. A technician checks the cabinet base, floor finish and exposed substrate individually.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   Wet insulation beneath the kitchen can hold water against framing. Technicians assess whether it must come out before the cavity receives drying air.

4. Verify the dry-out

   The cabinet base and nearby boards may dry at different rates. The crew measures each material again before clearing the work area.
