Damp backing paper can support mold growth after water soaks through drywall. The enclosed toe kick may retain humidity after the floor is wiped.

1. Extract liquid water

   An ice maker tube can release a steady trickle behind a cabinet. Extraction begins at the visible puddle and continues along the path into nearby flooring.

2. Trace the wet layers

   A damp ceiling below the kitchen can indicate water between joists. Technicians check both sides of the assembly to locate the materials holding moisture.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   Wet insulation beneath the kitchen can hold water against framing. Technicians assess whether it must come out before the cavity receives drying air.

4. Verify the dry-out

   The cabinet base and nearby boards may dry at different rates. The crew measures each material again before clearing the work area.
