Signs to look for

When to call us for appliance leak cleanup

As materials are evaluated, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

You know something leaked, but not which machine

For sound structural recovery, two or three machines share a wall or a cabinet run, and the water shows up between them.

Water only shows up during a cycle

Across the affected building area, dry floor in the morning, wet floor after the machine runs.

The drip pan under a machine holds standing water

As materials are evaluated, a drip pan is a warning device, not a fix.

A supply hose feels stiff, bulged or damp at the crimp

As materials are evaluated, rubber hardens with age and the crimped ends are where pressure concentrates.

An appliance shutoff valve is corroded, weeping or stuck

For sound structural recovery, white or green crust at the valve body means it has been seeping.

The floor dips or flexes where a machine sits

Across the affected building area, machines are heavy and they never move.

What happens

How we handle appliance leak cleanup

Our building recovery team adjusts the work to what got wet, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.

Naming the failed appliance and the failed part

Across the affected building area, supply hose, inlet valve, drain hose, pump, door seal or drip pan overflow.

The same age audit on every other water connection

From the building building assessment, while we are there we look at the rest.

A moisture map that ignores which machine it was

For sound structural recovery, water does not care about the brand on the front.

Extraction from behind and under machines that do not move

Across the affected building area, most appliance water sits in the gap you cannot reach.

Cabinet and toe kick void drying

For sound structural recovery, where the machine sits inside a cabinet run, the water is under the boxes.

Supply water versus drain water handling

As materials are evaluated, clean supply water is dried.

    Close the appliance valve if you can reach it safely

    Across the affected building area, reach the valve only from dry footing.

    +5 minutes
  3. 3

    Stop the cycle and leave the machine alone

    From the building building assessment, do not run it again to see if it still leaks.

    +10 minutes

    The failed part identified before anything is moved

    Across the affected building area, we photograph the connection in place first.

    On arrival
  5. 5

    The machine out and the footprint metered

    Across the affected building area, we pull the appliance, read the floor behind and under it, and mark the wet boundary.

    First hour

  7. 7

    Readings tracked in the cabinet run and the floor

    For sound structural recovery, we come back and meter the same marked points daily.

    Day 2 to 4

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

As materials are evaluated, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. As materials are evaluated, these examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situationWhat the estimate may includeTypical range
Single appliance failure caught while it was happening, one roomFrom the building assessment, national estimate. As materials are evaluated, extraction, void drying and a few equipment days on clean supply water.$500 to $1,500
Appliance failure that ran through a cycle or overnight, room plus adjacent flooringFrom the building assessment, national estimate. From the building assessment, typical when cabinetry and a flooring assembly are both in the wet boundary.$1,500 to $5,000
Appliance leak from an upper floor into the level belowFrom the building assessment, national estimate. Across the affected building area, two rooms, ceiling work and a longer drying schedule.$2,500 to $8,000
Appliance leak cleanup priced by affected area, clean waterAcross the affected building area, national estimate for measured affected area, the way most estimates are actually built.$3 to $7 per square foot
Cleaning and deodorizing after appliance drain waterNational estimate. Added to the drying construction-aware scope when the water came off the drain side.$200 to $800
Appliance bay and cabinet toe kick void drying, one cabinet runFrom the building assessment, national estimate for opening and drying the void under a fixed cabinet run.$400 to $1,000
After hours dispatch on its ownNational estimate for the after hours call out on its own, separate from the cleanup construction-aware scope.$100 to $400
  • Which appliance failed and how much water it moved
    As materials are evaluated, a refrigerator line weeps a few gallons a day. Across the affected building area, a supply hose at full pressure moves several gallons a minute.

  • Supply water or drain water
    For sound structural recovery, clean supply water is a drying job.

  • How long it ran before anyone noticed
    As materials are evaluated, hours is a room. As materials are evaluated, weeks is a room plus materials.

  • Whether the machine sits in a cabinet run
    Across the affected building area, a freestanding washer in an open room is straightforward.

  • Flooring type and whether it comes up
    Sheet vinyl and glued planks trap water against the deck. Whether we can dry through the assembly or have to lift it changes the construction-aware scope substantially.

  • Whether a floor below is involved
    From the building assessment, once the ceiling under the appliance is wet, you have two rooms, two ceilings of readings and usually a second set of equipment.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

For sound structural recovery, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

The next appliance is the same age as this one

Across the affected building area, homes get their machines in batches.

The machine goes back onto a floor that is still wet

As materials are evaluated, a new appliance delivered onto a wet deck traps the moisture under a hundred pounds of steel.

Drain water needs cleaning, not only drying

For sound structural recovery, water that came out of a drain hose carries food, detergent and body soil.

Mold can start within 24 to 48 hours behind a machine

As materials are evaluated, the gap behind an appliance is dark, still and warm.

Helpful service information

What to know about appliance leak cleanup

From the building assessment, start with the short explanation. For sound structural recovery, open a card if you want a little more detail.

What is happening inside the property

As materials are evaluated, the gap behind a washer, the void under a dishwasher and the cavity beneath a cabinet toe kick all hold water by water wicking.

Read the explanation

For sound structural recovery, appliance water usually ends up somewhere you cannot reach with a towel. As materials are evaluated, the gap behind a washer, the void under a dishwasher and the cavity beneath a cabinet toe kick all hold water by water wicking.

How the next step is decided

As materials are evaluated, plywood cabinet boxes and solid wood face frames usually dry in place.

Read the explanation

For sound structural recovery, salvageability on an appliance loss follows the material, not the story. As materials are evaluated, plywood cabinet boxes and solid wood face frames usually dry in place.

What may change the work

As materials are evaluated, rubber cores harden with age and with chlorinated water, and the crimped ferrule at each end is where pressure concentrates.

Read the explanation

As materials are evaluated, supply hoses fail for reasons you can predict. As materials are evaluated, rubber cores harden with age and with chlorinated water, and the crimped ferrule at each end is where pressure concentrates.

Common questions

Questions about appliance leak cleanup

Which household appliances cause the most water damage?

Across the affected building area, washing machines, dishwashers, water heaters and refrigerator ice maker lines account for most of the calls we take.

Do you repair the appliance too?

Across the affected building area, no. From the building building assessment, we handle the water damage and coordinate with whoever repairs or replaces the machine.

From the building assessment, one hose failed. Should I replace all of them?

For sound structural recovery, usually yes. From the building building assessment, appliance hoses in a home are almost always the same age and the same material.

Across the affected building area, my water heater is leaking. What do I shut off first?

Across the affected building area, shut the heater down before you touch the water. For sound structural recovery, on a gas unit, turn the gas control knob to pilot or off.

Can I run the machine while the floor dries?

From the building building assessment, not until the failed part is replaced and we have read the floor underneath.

Can I clean up an appliance leak myself?

From the building building assessment, you can handle a small surface spill on hard flooring. From the building building assessment, once standing water is about an inch deep, or it has reached a cabinet run or a carpet, a shop vacuum will not reach the water that matters.

Will my cabinets survive an appliance leak?

From the building building assessment, plywood cabinet boxes often dry in place once we open the toe kick and get air into the void.
