How Ice Maker Leak Cleanup Works in Cobden
Hardwood can swell when liquid reaches the underside. Early moisture mapping helps show the true floor area affected. The underside of a board may need longer than its exposed face.

Stop the source safely
A refrigerator should not be dragged across swollen floorboards. The appliance professional gains access to the source safely. Floor protection may be needed before the appliance moves.
-
Extract reachable water
The crew removes liquid from the Cobden floor before it continues soaking into seams. Cabinet edges receive attention. The operator then checks transitions where water could cross into another room.
-
Map concealed moisture
Moisture measurements identify whether cabinet bases or wall edges need further access. The assessor records the area that needs further drying access.
-
Dry and verify
