Frequently Asked Questions
Check inside the cabinet under the sink for water stains, swollen wood, or a musty smell. Check the flooring around the cabinet base for soft spots or discoloration. If you notice any of these signs, call us for a professional moisture assessment — hidden moisture causes mold growth and structural damage over time.
If water ran for more than a few minutes or spread beyond the sink area, professional assessment is recommended. Clean water can penetrate subfloors and cabinet bases in minutes. We use moisture meters to confirm whether drying equipment is needed — and we'll tell you honestly if your situation can be resolved without it.
Yes — slow leaks from supply lines, P-traps, and garbage disposal connections create persistently moist conditions inside cabinets that are ideal for mold growth. If you notice a musty odor from under your sink, there is likely mold present. We inspect, remediate, and dry to eliminate the source.
