Appliance Leak Cleanup
When an appliance leaks, it can cause more damage than most homeowners expect. Whether it’s a washing machine overflow, a refrigerator leak, or a faulty dishwasher, water can quickly spread under flooring, into walls, and beneath cabinets, creating the perfect conditions for mold growth, structural deterioration, and costly repairs.
Fortunately, All American Cleaning & Restoration provides 24\7 emergency appliance leak cleanup to stop the water, dry your home, and restore everything safely.
Common Appliances That Can Cause Water Damage
Washing Machines — Leaks often stem from burst or loose supply hoses, worn door seals, overflowing drums, clogged drainlines, or faulty pumps.
Dishwashers — Malfunctioning valves, damaged gaskets, clogged drain hoses, or using the wrong detergent can cause kitchen floods.
Refrigerators — Ice maker lines, water dispenser connections, and clogged defrost drains can cause water to drip, creating hidden damage.
Water Heaters — Corrosion, pressure valve failure, loose connections, or tank rupture can cause major damage, as water heaters hold gallons of water.
HVAC Units — Clogged condensate lines and full drain pans can cause overflow, leading to leaks in ceilings or walls.
Garbage Disposals — Leaks can occur from loose connections, seals, or cracks in the unit itself.
If water is coming from an appliance, even just a small drip, you can quickly have a major issue on your hands. So, it’s important not to wait.
Signs Your Appliance Leak Is Causing Hidden Damage
If you’re noticing any of these warning signs, the leak may be worse than it looks:
- Soft or warped flooring
- Wet or bubbling baseboards
- Musty or sour odors
- Rust or corrosion on fittings
- Discoloration around cabinets or walls
- Slow water pressure changes
- Increased utility bills
Don’t Ignore It; hidden moisture can lead to mold within 24 to 48 hours.
