The pipe fix and the dry out serve different purposes. The plumber restores the fixture, and the crew removes water from La Place cabinets, walls and flooring.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

- Close the sink shutoff or main valve when it is safe to do so.
- Avoid using a disposal, outlet or appliance in the wet area.
- Move dry household products out of the cabinet without disturbing wiring.
- Take photos of swollen panels, water marks and affected flooring.
- Call a plumber for the source and call 24/7 for extraction and drying.

Yes. Gaps at the sink base and continuous flooring can carry water to neighboring units. The technician tests beyond the visibly wet cabinet.
