What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
A sealed toe kick has little air movement. The technician may create safe access and use dehumidification when the material behind it is wet.
- 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.

The typical home in the ZIP codes around Waynesville was built in the 1980s. The home age suggests possible materials but does not prove the cause. A plumbing assessment and a separate wet area assessment answer different questions.
Occasional freezing is one cause among pressure and aging fittings. The cleanup plan depends on where water actually traveled.
