How Ice Maker Leak Cleanup Works in Allston

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.

1. Stop the source safely

   The owner keeps away from wet outlets while a qualified trade addresses any electrical hazard. Extraction begins when access is safe. Wet cords remain untouched until the electrical condition is addressed.

2. Extract reachable water

   Accessible wet surfaces are vacuumed or extracted as their materials allow. The technician checks neighboring rooms. Recovering liquid early reduces the load on later drying equipment.

3. 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.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew records the drying course for the property owner. A final check covers the known wet areas. The technician notes any remaining area that needs reassessment.
