What to do
Fast action helps reduce secondary damage
A failed flexi hose under a sink, vanity, toilet or laundry tap can flood a property quickly. Because the water source is usually pressurised, damage can spread under cabinets, carpet, timber flooring and walls before anyone notices.
- Check flexible hoses regularly for rust, kinks or swelling.
- Replace old hoses before they fail, especially in rental or strata properties.
- After a burst, isolate the water and arrange moisture testing.
- Dry affected cupboards, flooring and cavities properly to reduce mould risk.
When to call a water damage specialist
Call for support when water has reached carpet, timber flooring, walls, ceilings, cabinetry, commercial areas or electrical zones. Moisture can remain hidden after surface cleanup, especially in apartments, strata buildings, offices and commercial properties.
