What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

- Close the accessible vanity shutoff if the floor and nearby electrical fixtures are safe.
- Stop using the sink until a plumber corrects the source.
- Keep toiletries and cleaning products away from pooled water.
- Photograph stains, swelling and any wet floor edge before cleanup.
- Call 24/7 when water has reached the cabinet, wall or bathroom floor.
