A sink supply, dishwasher or refrigerator water tube can feed moisture beneath cabinets. Water can move into toe kicks, cabinet bases, flooring and adjacent wallboard. Jobs involving kitchen flood, water under kitchen cabinets and kitchen ceiling leak need a check beyond the visible puddle.
A plumber stops a leaking pipe and fixes the plumbing. The flood cleanup crew extracts water from rooms it reached and dries the structure. Drying readings then show how far that water reached.

How Kitchen Flood Cleanup Works in Tiger
-
Remove standing water
After safety hazards are addressed, extraction reduces water sitting indoors. The remaining wet layers are assessed afterward.

Map moisture
A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.

Remove soaked material
Contaminated porous materials are separated from salvageable finishes. The loss source informs contamination handling.
-
Dry and verify
Final checks document the remaining structure after extraction. Records can explain the work to an insurer.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

- Keep clear of powered appliances standing in water.
- If the source is plumbing, shut off the supply valve when it is safe to reach.
- Keep children and pets away from dirty water.
- Move dry belongings out of the water path when safe.
- Photograph visible water and damaged belongings before moving them.

Gray polybutylene was installed in many homes during these decades and has a known failure history. The crew dries any resulting loss. That history does not replace an inspection of the actual pipe.
Exterior wall plumbing can be exposed during a sudden freeze. The resulting damage needs drying. Drywall and insulation are assessed separately.
