Appliance Leak Prevention Tips in Little Rock & Benton, AR

Appliance leaks, overflows and resulting floods often are caused by leaks you don't notice, or by ones you tend to ignore. Many homeowners believe minor leaks can't do major harm. However, any leak has the potential for immediate or future water damage, and (worse) mold growth. Stopping any leak to prevent further damage, repair cost, health hazards or any future issue is important and requires professional attention.

Appliance leaks can be stopped or controlled by turning off the water source, such as a washing machine connector or dishwasher hose. Either cut off the water main or the appliance's water supply. Move or raise furniture and other appliances and dry if possible to avoid further damage after a flood has occurred.

Remove any carpet or rugs that can be relocated, and contact the professionals at Chenal Restoration as soon as possible. Make sure pressurized water lines into your home appliances are undamaged and have tightened fittings. For appliance leak cleanup and repair, trust Chenal
