Default Kitchen cabinet question

The bottom panel of my kitchen cabinet under the sink has some warpage

HD guy says just nail or glue a veneer on top...


I had the problem of the sink leaking down below and ruined the bottom of
the cabinet. My cabinet bottom was made of particle board (imagine that)
so, It was pretty easy to remove it. It does form the bottom of the
cabinet. But if you are somewhat careful you can knockout most of it and
put in new. I went to HD and got a piece of formica topped particle board
and cut it to size. Be sure to cut it to two pieces to fit in the bottom
underneath the sink. Also, I didnt nail it in place. Left it loose so that
if it happened again or if I needed to get in below it it would be easier
next time.
