Hard surfaces are vacuumed carefully so liquid does not keep migrating beneath baseboards.
-
Find absorbed moisture
Cabinet cavities and subfloors receive attention where a small leak may have spread sideways.
-
Remove what cannot stay
Laminate that has swollen at the seams often cannot be dried back to its former shape.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers encourage evaporation while dehumidifiers capture moisture from the air.

- Stop the water at a safe shutoff if the source is inside.
- Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
- Photograph loose insulation before moving affected items.
- Keep children and pets away from standing or dirty water.
