3. Clean and open affected layers

   Damaged cabinet bases or wall sections are assessed for retention. Drying access depends on the assembly and contamination.

4. Dry and verify progress

   The technician compares wet points with appropriate dry references. Persistent readings prompt another look at concealed water.
