How Refrigerator and Ice Maker Leak Water Cleanup Works in Morgan City

1. Remove standing water

2. Find absorbed moisture

   Cabinet cavities and subfloors receive attention where a small leak may have spread sideways.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Opening a trapped assembly gives air a path to the wet material inside.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers encourage evaporation while dehumidifiers capture moisture from the air.
