How Ice Maker Leak Cleanup Works in Sims

Cabinet trim can hide a wet wall base. Opening the right area permits a more effective drying setup. Removing a soaked trim piece may expose the wall for drying.

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

   The crew removes liquid from the Sims 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 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

   Air movement and dehumidification address retained materials in the Sims home. Follow-up readings show progress. The owner can retain the final moisture record for the property file.
