How Fridge Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Drasco

1. Stop the source safely

   The owner keeps away from wet outlets while a qualified trade addresses any electrical hazard. Extraction begins when access is safe. Wet cords remain untouched until the electrical condition is addressed.

2. Extract reachable water

   The operator focuses on standing water first. Less liquid remains to feed the subfloor after extraction. Floor edges receive another look after the obvious pool disappears.

3. Map concealed moisture

   Floor joints can hide damp material after the puddle disappears. The Drasco technician tests nearby layers. A reading at the wall base helps define the boundary of the loss.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movement and dehumidification address retained materials in the Drasco home. Follow-up readings show progress. The owner can retain the final moisture record for the property file.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

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.

• Keep people away from a bulging or dripping lower ceiling.
• Do not touch a wet light, switch or electrical panel.
• Close a safe, reachable refrigerator supply valve or main shutoff.
• Photograph the ceiling and kitchen water from stable dry areas.
• Call (888) 578-4720 and mention the ceiling room and any wet fixtures.
