A dry-looking tile surface can cover a damp subfloor. Measurements keep the work focused on actual moisture. A subfloor check answers more than touch alone can reveal.
-
Stop the source safely
A refrigerator should not be dragged across swollen floorboards. The appliance professional gains access to the source safely. Floor protection may be needed before the appliance moves.

Extract reachable water
A shallow kitchen puddle needs suitable extraction tools. Towels alone may leave water beneath the appliance. A cabinet compartment may hold shallow water beyond the floor puddle.
-
Map concealed moisture
A wall base adjacent to the fridge may wick water. The crew checks beyond the original drip point. Cabinet interiors are tested when the leak path enters the base.

Dry and verify
The drying setup changes if a cavity remains wet. The crew documents measurements before equipment leaves. Equipment stays in place while material readings still call for drying.
