Detailed Cabinet Water Damage Repair Solutions
Cabinet Leak Cleanup Restoration
Cleanup removes wet shelf liners, stored items and debris from the cabinet so the base and walls can dry.
Cabinet Mold Prevention Treatment
After drying, cabinet bases and the wall behind them can be treated with an antimicrobial where they stayed wet for days.
Wet Cabinet Drying Services
Drying air is pushed under and behind the cabinets through removed toe kicks or small openings, reaching areas fans cannot.
Discolored Cabinet Finish Restoration
Laminate and veneer that lifted or bubbled usually cannot be restored and are noted for replacement.
Swollen Cabinet Door Repair
Particleboard doors and shelves that swelled usually do not shrink back, so they are noted for replacement. Solid wood doors may flatten as they dry.
