What Under Sink Leak Cleanup Includes in Navajo Dam
The source of under sink leak cleanup determines how the cleanup starts. A Navajo Dam technician distinguishes fresh supply water from used drain water before extraction.
The puddle under a sink is often the smallest part of the wet area. Water can wick into a cabinet base, run behind the back panel, and collect under a recessed toe kick. A drain leak may also leave food residue in the water, which changes how the affected materials are cleaned.
If the sink supply pipe bursts, turn off the water when safe. The plumber addresses the break, and the extraction crew removes water from adjacent materials.

- Close an accessible valve only while standing on dry, stable flooring.
- Leave wet outlets, disposal wiring, and plugged appliances alone.

Absorbent wood products can hold water after the puddle disappears. Moisture testing locates the retained water so the crew can dry or remove the affected material.

Material that cannot dry cleanly or retain strength may be removed and documented.
