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

   Water can slip behind the baseboard beside a refrigerator. The crew follows readings along the wall and cabinet edge instead of stopping at the visible stain.

3. Remove what cannot dry

   Porous trim beside a persistent leak can remain saturated after surface extraction. The technician checks whether it can dry or needs removal.

4. Verify the dry-out

   A clean-looking floor can still contain moisture below its finish. Technicians compare follow-up measurements with the drying targets for that material.
