Appliance and Supply Hose Leaks: what to know
Appliance leaks start small and hide well. A rubber washer hose splits, a dishwasher drain connection loosens, a refrigerator ice maker tube cracks behind the fridge, or a toilet supply gives out. The water runs under cabinets and appliances where nobody sees it, soaking toe kicks, cabinet bases and subfloor before it reaches the open floor.
The usual suspects
- Rubber washing machine hoses that age and burst
- Dishwasher supply and drain connections under the sink
- Refrigerator ice maker and water dispenser tubing
- Toilet supply hoses and fill valves
Washer and dishwasher discharge counts as gray water, which changes what can be saved.
Water seeping from under the cabinets? The crew dries the bases and the subfloor.
(888) 578-6508Get the kitchen subfloor readDrying under cabinets
Toe kicks come off so air can reach the cabinet bases, and small holes behind the kick let dry air flow under the cabinets. Air movers and a dehumidifier work the room while readings track the subfloor and the wall behind the appliance. Particleboard bases that swell are replaced, and solid wood cabinets usually dry in place.
Prevention after the repair
Braided steel hoses, a leak sensor under the sink and a periodic look behind the fridge catch most of these early. The EPA WaterSense Fix a Leak Week pages list simple checks, and the CPSC posts appliance recalls.
Before the crew arrives
Shut the water off at the fixture valve or the main, keep clear of wet outlets and cords, and take photos before anything is moved or thrown out.
