What Under Sink Leak Cleanup Includes in Stratton
The source of under sink leak cleanup determines how the cleanup starts. A Stratton 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.
A restored fixture does not make a swollen cabinet dry. The technician checks hidden moisture and sets equipment after the plumbing source is fixed.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

- Stop using the sink until a plumber addresses the source.
- Close an accessible valve only while standing on dry, stable flooring.
- Leave wet outlets, disposal wiring, and plugged appliances alone.
- Move dry cabinet contents aside and leave soaked items for assessment.
- Photograph staining, swollen panels, and any water below the cabinet.
