Antioch Home Flooded by Malfunctioning Kitchen Appliance?

We restore water damage in Lake County “Like it never even happened.”

When your home or commercial business in Antioch has a water damage emergency, our Northwest Lake County team is on call and ready to respond. Kitchen appliances are essential for daily convenience, but they can also be sources of water damage if not properly maintained. Here are some common culprits:

Dishwashers: A dishwasher can cause significant water damage if its door seal, hoses, or connections fail. Leaks can occur due to worn-out seals, clogged filters, or damaged hoses, leading to water pooling on your kitchen floor and seeping into cabinetry and subflooring.

Refrigerators with Ice Makers and Water Dispensers: Refrigerators equipped with ice makers and water dispensers have water supply lines that can crack or become loose. These lines are often hidden behind the appliance, making leaks harder to detect until substantial damage has occurred.

Sinks and Garbage Disposals: Leaky faucets, under-sink plumbing issues, and faulty garbage disposals can all cause water damage. Slow leaks under the sink can go unnoticed for a long time, leading to mold growth and wood rot in cabinetry.

Regular maintenance and prompt attention to any signs of wear or leaks can help prevent these kitchen appliances from causing water damage. To safeguard your home, check hoses, seals, and connections periodically and replace them as needed.
