Appliance Leaks Do More Damage Than They Look
A washing machine hose that bursts, a dishwasher that overflows, a refrigerator ice-maker line that drips for weeks, or a water heater that finally gives out. Appliance leaks are among the most common water damage calls we get in Macomb and Oakland County.
The water you see on the floor is usually only part of it. Water runs under cabinets, behind baseboards, into the subfloor and down to the ceiling or basement below. Slow leaks can also lead to mold and rotted subfloors before anyone notices.
Select Restoration finds all of the water with moisture meters and thermal imaging, extracts it, dries the structure and makes the repairs, including cabinets, flooring and drywall.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is appliance water damage covered by insurance?
Sudden leaks are often covered. Slow leaks that went on for a long time may not be. Check your policy, and we will document the damage.
Do my cabinets have to come out?
Not always. We can often dry under cabinets by removing the toe kick. Swollen particle board cabinets usually need to be replaced.
Can you match my flooring?
We will try to match it. When an exact match is not available, our design center helps you choose a replacement.
How long will drying take?
Usually three to five days, with daily moisture readings.
