How Fridge Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Randleman

1. Stop the source safely

   A refrigerator should not be dragged across swollen floorboards. The appliance professional gains access to the source safely. Floor protection may be needed before the appliance moves.

2. Extract reachable water

   The crew removes liquid from the Randleman floor before it continues soaking into seams. Cabinet edges receive attention. The operator then checks transitions where water could cross into another room.

3. Map concealed moisture

   A ceiling below the kitchen receives attention when water travels between floors. Unsafe sagging material stays off limits. Ceiling insulation may hold water above a visible mark.

4. Dry and verify

   A technician compares material readings with drying goals. New finishes wait until the structure is ready. A flooring installer can use the drying record before new work begins.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Dehumidifiers remove airborne moisture after extraction. The crew tracks the remaining wet materials with repeat readings. Equipment settings change as the readings show improvement.

• Keep people away from a bulging or dripping lower ceiling.
• Do not touch a wet light, switch or electrical panel.
• Close a safe, reachable refrigerator supply valve or main shutoff.
• Photograph the ceiling and kitchen water from stable dry areas.
• Call (888) 578-4720 and mention the ceiling room and any wet fixtures.
