How Supply Line and Sink Leak Water Extraction Works in Opheim
-
Pull the standing water out
The crew begins with truck-mounted or portable extractors, lifting standing water from carpet, pad and hard floors. Clearing the bulk of it first can take days off the drying that follows.
-
Map the moisture
A dry reading from an unaffected room sets the target. A material counts as dry when it reads close to that number.
-
Open what holds water
The kick plate beneath cabinets often comes off so air can reach water trapped below. The technician may also drill small vent holes in the cabinet base.
-
Dry and verify
Specialty systems can push dry air into wall cavities or under hardwood. Desiccant dehumidifiers handle Class 4 materials and cold spaces where standard units struggle.

- Empty the cabinet and set stored items on a dry surface.
- Place towels and a pan under any drip.
