Complete Cabinet Water Damage Repair Offerings
Discolored Cabinet Finish Restoration
Finish work comes after the cabinet is fully dry, so new finish is not applied over damp wood.
Emergency Cabinet Drying Response
The sooner a wet cabinet is emptied and dried, the more likely it is that the box and doors can be saved.
Wood Cabinet Water Damage Repair
Plywood boxes usually survive a leak better than particleboard. Readings and inspection show which parts can stay.
Wet Cabinet Drying Services
Cabinet bases, back panels and the wall behind them are dried with directed airflow and dehumidifiers, with readings taken daily.
Kitchen Cabinet Water Extraction
Kitchen cabinets hide water underneath. Toe kicks are often removed so water trapped between the cabinet and the subfloor can be extracted.
When to Consider Cabinet Water Damage Repair for Your Cabinets
Increased Humidity in Kitchen
A kitchen or bathroom that stays humid can keep cabinets damp even without a direct leak.
Swollen Cabinet Doors
Doors that swell, stick or no longer close properly have absorbed water along their edges.
Musty Odors
A musty smell when you open the sink cabinet usually means a slow leak or damp wood inside.
Visible Mold
Dark spots on the cabinet floor or back wall mean the area has stayed damp for days.
