Signs to look for
When to call us for sink overflow cleanup
With damage contained, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.
The countertop drained toward the front edge
To protect the property, counters are not flat and they are not sealed at the front.
The toe kick is dark or damp at its lower edge
Before materials deteriorate further, the toe kick is the recessed strip at the floor under the cabinet.
The drawer stack next to the basin is wet inside
With damage contained, water off the counter enters the top of a drawer bank.
There is water behind the cabinet run
To protect the property, some of it goes back over the countertop rear edge and behind the backsplash.
The flooring has lifted at a seam in front of the sink
With damage contained, laminate and floating floors swell at their edges first.
What happens
How we handle sink overflow cleanup
Our property-protection team adjusts the work to what got wet, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.
Tracing the path from the sink rim outward
With damage contained, countertop, cabinet face, drawer stack, toe kick void, floor, wall base and behind the run.
A moisture map that includes the floor behind the cabinets
As our controlled response continues, the strip behind a cabinet run is invisible and often the wettest place in the room.
Cabinet emptied, dried and read from the inside
As our controlled response continues, everything under the basin comes out and goes on dry ground.
Toe kick void opened where water is standing
Before materials deteriorate further, the void under a fixed cabinet has no airflow.
Extraction from under the floor covering
To protect the property, where laminate, vinyl or engineered flooring has trapped water underneath, we extract from beneath the covering rather than drying a surface that is already dry.
Gray water cleaning when the basin was in use
With damage contained, a sink full of dishwater or soaking laundry is gray water.

What to expect
What to expect from our property-protection team

Your call -
2
Clear the countertop before you touch the floor
Before materials deteriorate further, the counter is still feeding the cabinet face. With damage contained, towel the counter and the front edge first, because that stops the supply to everything below.
+2 minutes -
3
Open the cabinet and look at the toe kick line
To protect the property, take a look from a dry standing position with the doors open.
+5 minutes -
4
Check behind the run and the room below
As our controlled response continues, look at the floor beyond the end of the cabinets and, if this was upstairs, at the ceiling underneath.
+10 minutes -
5
We follow the path, not the puddle
As our controlled response continues, on arrival we start at the sink rim and work outward in the order the water traveled, marking a wet boundary you can see on the floor.
On arrival -
6
Readings at the counter line, the cabinet and the void
To protect the property, moisture meter readings are taken at each stage of the path and written down.
First hour -
7
Water out of the toe kick and under the flooring
Before materials deteriorate further, extraction from the void and from beneath any floor covering that trapped water, followed by cleaning first if the basin held gray water.
Same day
Understanding the cost
What can affect the price
With damage contained, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. With damage contained, these examples show what may change the estimate.
| Common situation | What the estimate may include | Typical range |
|---|---|---|
| Sink overflow caught while it was happening, one room | To protect the property, national estimate. As our controlled response continues, extraction, toe kick void drying and a few equipment days on clean water. | $500 to $1,500 |
| Overflow that ran unattended into the cabinet run and flooring | To protect the property, national estimate. To protect the property, cabinetry, a flooring assembly and a larger measured area. | $1,500 to $5,000 |
| Sink base and toe kick void drying, one cabinet run | Before materials deteriorate further, national estimate for the void under a fixed cabinet run, opened and dried on its own. | $400 to $1,000 |
| Overflow from an upper floor sink into the ceiling below | To protect the property, national estimate. With damage contained, a second room, the joist bay above it and ceiling repair. | $2,500 to $8,000 |
| Overflow cleanup priced by affected area, clean water | Before materials deteriorate further, national estimate for measured affected area, which is how most estimates are built. | $3 to $7 per square foot |
| Cleaning and deodorizing after gray water from a used basin | As our controlled response continues, national estimate for the cleaning work, which is quoted next to the drying and not inside it. | $200 to $800 |
| After hours dispatch on its own | Before materials deteriorate further, national estimate for the out of hours call out itself, before any cleanup is priced. | $100 to $400 |
How long the tap ran
Before materials deteriorate further, minutes decide gallons and gallons decide footprint.How much of the water went into the cabinet
Before materials deteriorate further, water that stayed on an open floor is straightforward.Which sink it was
With damage contained, a bathroom vanity, a kitchen sink in a long cabinet run and a utility sink over a concrete floor are three different jobs with three different scopes.Cabinet construction
Before materials deteriorate further, plywood boxes usually dry and stay.Flooring type and whether it comes up
Before materials deteriorate further, tile is forgiving.Clean water or gray water
A basin of clean running water is a drying job. A basin that held dishes, food or soaking laundry adds cleaning and deodorizing to the protection plan.
Why timing matters
What can happen when the area stays wet
As our controlled response continues, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.
The wet area is many times the puddle
With damage contained, a sink base cabinet is two or three feet wide.
This cabinet gets wet from the top down as well
To protect the property, unlike a leak underneath, an overflow soaks the cabinet face, the drawer bottoms and the interior shelf.
The floor behind the run never dries by itself
Before materials deteriorate further, water that went over the rear edge lands in a strip with no airflow and no access.
Mold can start within 24 to 48 hours in a closed base
As our controlled response continues, the inside of a sink cabinet is dark, still and enclosed.
Helpful service information
What to know about sink overflow cleanup
To protect the property, start with the short explanation. As our controlled response continues, open a card if you want a little more detail.
What is happening inside the property
To protect the property, on a bathroom sink it is a small channel cast into the sink basin that bypasses a closed stopper.
Read the explanation
Before materials deteriorate further, the overflow drain is worth understanding, because most people trust it further than it deserves.
How the next step is decided
To protect the property, some goes forward over the front edge onto the cabinet face and down into the toe kick void.
Read the explanation
With damage contained, water off a countertop takes four routes at once, and they matter more than the volume.
What may change the work
As our controlled response continues, the floor surface is the easy part and it is usually dry before we arrive.
Read the explanation
As our controlled response continues, drying a sink overflow is a void problem, not a floor problem. As our controlled response continues, the floor surface is the easy part and it is usually dry before we arrive.

Questions about sink overflow cleanup
Why did my sink overflow so quickly?
As our controlled response continues, faucets run at roughly one to two and a half gallons a minute.
What is the overflow hole for if it did not stop this?
As our controlled response continues, it helps, and it is not enough. With damage contained, the overflow channel on a bathroom sink is sized well below the faucet flow rate of a fully open tap.
Do kitchen sinks have an overflow drain?
With damage contained, most do not. As our controlled response continues, kitchen and utility sinks are usually built without one, which is why a plugged kitchen basin with the tap running goes over the rim with no warning at all.
As our controlled response continues, it only ran a few minutes. How is the floor this wet?
As our controlled response continues, because it did not land in one place. Before materials deteriorate further, water leaves the basin at counter height, sheets across the top and drops off the front edge, so it spreads instead of pooling.
Is the water dirty?
Before materials deteriorate further, if the tap was running into an empty basin, it is clean water and this is a drying job.
Can I just towel it up myself?
With damage contained, towels and a household wet vacuum handle the counter and the open floor. Before materials deteriorate further, they cannot reach the toe kick void, the space behind the cabinets or under a floating floor, and that is where overflows go wrong.
Will my sink cabinet be saved?
Before materials deteriorate further, plywood cabinet boxes usually dry in place once the toe kick is opened and air gets into the void.
