What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
The first day after a supply hose break matters for cabinet materials. Prompt extraction leaves less water in the floor and wall layers.
- Close the accessible vanity shutoff if the floor and nearby electrical fixtures are safe.
- Stop using the sink until a plumber corrects the source.
- Keep toiletries and cleaning products away from pooled water.
- Photograph stains, swelling and any wet floor edge before cleanup.
- Call 24/7 when water has reached the cabinet, wall or bathroom floor.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

A kitchen sink on a cold exterior wall can hide a frozen supply segment. Water damage becomes apparent after flow resumes.
