A Leak Under your Wichita KS Sink

7/23/2022 (Permalink)

The pipes in the cabinet beneath a kitchen sink are a perfect example of potential water damage waiting to happen. This could be due to bad pipe connection, frozen burst pipes, or even just old hardware.
A leak under the sink could go unnoticed for days or even weeks. Even if the leak is small, it can eventually cause considerable damage if left unnoticed. One red flag for an out of sight broken pipe is a sudden spike in your water bill when you haven’t changed anything.

If you have a pipe leak in your Wichita home, the first thing you should do to prevent more damage is to shut off the water supply. Then call SERVPRO of Southwest Wichita to come inspect the damage and help advise if you need to call your insurance company. We try to help you avoid a claim if possible because that can increase your premium or even get your policy canceled. One way we do this is by restoring and drying down wet materials instead of ripping them out. During our inspection we are typically able to give a general estimate on the price of the mitigation and clean-up which you can use to determine whether filing a claim is necessary.

Whether your home or business has been damaged by significant flooding or a simple leak, your kitchen repair often requires the attention of water remediation specialists who can restore the area quickly, give SERVPRO of Southwest Wichita a call at (316) 260-9011.
