How Ice Maker Leak Cleanup Works in Pella

A dry-looking tile surface can cover a damp subfloor. Measurements keep the work focused on actual moisture. A subfloor check answers more than touch alone can reveal.

1. Stop the source safely

   The water damage crew checks whether the kitchen supply is closed. Continued discharge changes the extraction plan. The source status belongs in the job record before extraction proceeds.

2. Extract reachable water

   Accessible wet surfaces are vacuumed or extracted as their materials allow. The technician checks neighboring rooms. Recovering liquid early reduces the load on later drying equipment.

3. Map concealed moisture

   A wall base adjacent to the fridge may wick water. The crew checks beyond the original drip point. Cabinet interiors are tested when the leak path enters the base.

4. Dry and verify

   The drying setup changes if a cavity remains wet. The crew documents measurements before equipment leaves. Equipment stays in place while material readings still call for drying.
