How Fridge Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Reva

1. Stop the source safely

   An accessible shutoff can limit the Reva 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

   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

   A technician compares material readings with drying goals. New finishes wait until the structure is ready. A flooring installer can use the drying record before new work begins.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

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.

• Keep people away from a bulging or dripping lower ceiling.
• Do not touch a wet light, switch or electrical panel.
• Close a safe, reachable refrigerator supply valve or main shutoff.
• Photograph the ceiling and kitchen water from stable dry areas.
• Call (888) 578-4720 and mention the ceiling room and any wet fixtures.
