3. Open trapped-water areas

   A damaged toe kick can block airflow around wet cabinet bases. The Millersburg crew opens access when material conditions require it.

4. Dry and verify

   Cabinets, subflooring and wallboard can dry at different rates. The local team monitors each affected layer at the Millersburg address.

• Leave wet plugs, outlets and appliance wiring alone; an electrician handles hazards.
