How Bathroom Vanity Leak Water Cleanup Works in Dekalb

1. Remove accessible sink water

   A portable extractor reaches the sink area while the crew identifies wet flooring beyond the splash zone.

2. Measure the hidden wet area

   Readings from cabinet and floor layers determine equipment placement, not the size of the puddle alone.

3. Create drying access

   Cabinet components that cannot be dried in place are documented before removal.

4. Dry and confirm progress

   A final set of readings helps the owner plan cabinet and flooring work after mitigation.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Water trapped beneath a floor finish may not be visible. The crew checks the substrate so wet material is not covered during reconstruction.

• Close the accessible vanity shutoff if the floor and nearby electrical fixtures are safe.
• Stop using the sink until a plumber corrects the source.
• Keep toiletries and cleaning products away from pooled water.
• Photograph stains, swelling and any wet floor edge before cleanup.
• Call 24/7 when water has reached the cabinet, wall or bathroom floor.
