2. Measure the hidden wet area

   A meter checks cabinet panels, wallboard and floor seams against dry reference materials.

3. Create drying access

• Move dry household products out of the cabinet without disturbing wiring.
• Take photos of swollen panels, water marks and affected flooring.
• Call a plumber for the source and call 24/7 for extraction and drying.
