Whenever we look under a kitchen cabinet and you notice a
bowl or a bucket, you had better start looking for water leaks and water
damage.
What's the first thing that you see underneath this water damage kitchen
cabinet? A nice big bucket to catch lots of water that's leaking from
somewhere.
You don't have to look to close at the bottom of the cabinet floor, to
see the black spots. Do you think that someone was playing with matches
underneath the kitchen cabinet or could this actually be mold from the
water leaking kitchen drain.
Home Repair Tip: Buckets work great for temporary plumbing problems, but
shouldn't remain for long periods of time.
Fix all water leaks as soon as possible and if
you don't know how, contact someone like a licensed plumbing contractor,
who does.
If you're a home repair professional, contractor or even a
do-it-yourself homeowner, I would like to point something out that most
people aren't familiar with.
The water damage that you're looking at in the picture above, probably
isn't all of the water damage in the kitchen. I can only imagine how
much mold, fungus or mildew is actually growing underneath the kitchen
cabinet.
When I say that you need to fix any water leaks as soon as possible,
it's to prevent damage like this.
You think that the only damage in the picture above is
the water leak itself and the bottom of the kitchen cabinet, but what
about underneath the kitchen cabinet and the cabinets next to the
kitchen sink?
