Close the sink valve if it can be reached safely. A plumber fixes the leaking part, while the water damage crew in Helena extracts escaped water and checks the cabinet and floor.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
A wiped floor is not proof that the cabinet backing is dry. Trapped moisture can support mold growth; meter readings show where structural drying is still needed.
- Close the accessible shutoff if it can be reached without electrical danger.
- Stop using the sink until a plumber identifies and fixes the source.
- Keep hands away from wet outlets, appliance plugs and disposal wiring.
- Remove dry items from the cabinet and photograph damaged contents.
- Call 24/7 when the cabinet base or surrounding floor remains wet.

A sudden cold snap may affect poorly protected plumbing. Start drying promptly if water has reached absorbent materials.
