What Bathroom Vanity Leak Cleanup Includes in Pollock
The source of bathroom vanity leak cleanup determines how the cleanup starts. A Pollock technician distinguishes fresh supply water from used drain water before extraction.
A bathroom sink may drip into a vanity for days before water appears on the tile or vinyl floor. The back of the cabinet, baseboard, and wall cavity can stay damp even after the faucet is off. In an upstairs bathroom, water may also pass through the floor around pipe openings and stain the room below.
A plumber stops the sink leak at the valve, faucet or drain. The Pollock water damage crew extracts what escaped and dries the cabinet and floor.
