1. Stop the source safely

   An accessible shutoff can limit the Amherst refrigerator leak when the floor is dry. The appliance technician handles the failed connection. Photographs of the first puddle help show where the release began.

2. Extract reachable water

   The crew selects tools suited to flooring and depth. Repeated passes recover water from reachable areas. The crew adjusts extraction passes to the surface and its condition.

3. Map concealed moisture

   The assessor follows the water path past the refrigerator. A dry-looking surface may still cover a wet subfloor. Adjacent flooring is checked so the drying scope follows the spread.

4. Dry and verify

   Cabinet and floor layers are assessed again after equipment runs. The endpoint is based on readings. Drying completion depends on material conditions rather than the calendar.
