When a kitchen sink overflows in West University Place, TX, crews respond fast to extract water and dry the slab and cabinets to IICRC standards, keeping damage contained.
Technicians first confirm the water is off and map how far the overflow traveled across West University Place kitchen floors and into adjacent rooms before any work begins.
Portable extractors pull water from flooring and under cabinets. The crew then opens cabinet bases as needed and places air movers to dry the slab edge and interior cavities.
Final moisture readings confirm the slab, flooring, and cabinet base are dry. Technicians document the process with photos suitable for a potential insurance claim.
A typical kitchen sink overflow that is caught within an hour or two and stays contained to the kitchen floor and cabinet base often runs from about $350 to $1,200 for extraction and drying. If water traveled into an adjoining dining or living area, or original particleboard cabinetry has to be partially rebuilt, costs commonly run higher. Sudden accidental overflows are often covered under a standard homeowner's policy, and moisture documentation is built to support that claim if the homeowner chooses to file one.
