Comprehensive Cabinet Water Damage Repair Services
Discolored Cabinet Finish Restoration
Water marks and light stains on wood finishes can sometimes be cleaned or touched up after drying. Deeper damage needs refinishing.
Wet Cabinet Drying Services
Drying air is pushed under and behind the cabinets through removed toe kicks or small openings, reaching areas fans cannot.
Wood Cabinet Water Damage Repair
Plywood boxes usually survive a leak better than particleboard. Readings and inspection show which parts can stay.
Cabinet Leak Cleanup Restoration
Cleanup removes wet shelf liners, stored items and debris from the cabinet so the base and walls can dry.
Kitchen Cabinet Water Extraction
Water pooled in the sink base or under the toe kick is extracted, and the cabinet is emptied so the floor of the base can be reached and dried.
Signs of Cabinet Water Damage in Lakewood
Visible Water Stains
Rings, lines or dark patches on the cabinet floor or back panel show water has been sitting there.
Soft or Warped Wood
Soft, spongy or bowed cabinet floors and shelves have soaked up water and may need replacing.
Musty Odors
A musty smell when you open the sink cabinet usually means a slow leak or damp wood inside.
Discolored Wood Finishes
Wood finishes that turn white, gray or dark in spots have been wet long enough to stain.
How Cabinet Water Damage Repair Works in Lakewood
Step 1: Emergency Water Extraction
The water is shut off, cabinets are emptied and water is extracted from the bases and the floor.

Step 3: Wood Damage Assessment
Each cabinet is checked for swelling, warping and loose joints once it starts to dry.

Dry cabinets are noted for refinishing, adjustment or replacement of damaged parts.
