What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Water trapped beneath a floor finish may not be visible. The crew checks the substrate so wet material is not covered during reconstruction.
- Close the sink shutoff or main valve when it is safe to do so.
- Avoid using a disposal, outlet or appliance in the wet area.
- Move dry household products out of the cabinet without disturbing wiring.
- Take photos of swollen panels, water marks and affected flooring.
- Call a plumber for the source and call 24/7 for extraction and drying.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The local ZIP data show roughly 90,565 people and 44% of homes built before 1960. An older valve is one possible source, not a diagnosis. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Charleston was built in the 1960s. Copper supply plumbing became common during this period, and old joints may need attention. A cabinet flood still requires separate drying.
An attic or garage supply run may see a brief cold event. The sink cabinet still needs moisture checks after the source is fixed.
