Water is standing away from the floor drain instead of running to it
With local guidance, a kitchen floor is pitched to the drain, so a puddle sitting still means the drain is blocked or the water is coming up out of it.

Signs to look for
When to call us for restaurant water cleanup
With local guidance, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.
The floor drain or mop sink is gurgling during a busy service
With local guidance, gurgling means the line is struggling and the next surge will come up onto the floor.
The base of a walk in cooler panel is dark or the corner is swollen
With local guidance, water gets into a cooler panel at the joints, at the base channel and through damaged skins.
Quarry tile grout has gone soft or a tile rocks under your foot
With local guidance, grout is the weak point in a kitchen floor and it lets water reach the setting bed and the slab below.
There is water under the dish pit or behind the three compartment sink
From your first call, that corner takes the most water in the building and the wall behind it is usually FRP wall panel over gypsum.
The dining room carpet feels cool near a wall or a banquette
For a clear next step close to home, front of house carpet hides water because the pattern and the low light forgive everything.
What happens
How we handle restaurant water cleanup
Our neighborhood response team adjusts the work to what got wet, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.
A source and safety walk before the mop comes out
As your nearby response team helps, we identify whether this is supply water, drain water or outside water, because that sets the whole local service plan.
Food disposal documented against the Food Code
For a clear next step close to home, anything in permeable packaging goes out, and so does any compromised can, meaning dented, rusted, seam damaged or swollen.
Contained extraction of contaminated water
For a clear next step close to home, drain water and grease trap water are contained and extracted to controlled disposal.
Equipment moved out and the floor beneath it recovered
Our neighborhood response team rolls or blocks up prep table, reach in refrigerator and line equipment so the floor under them is extracted and cleaned.
Quarry tile, grout and drain surround deep cleaning
As your nearby response team helps, floors are cleaned with detergent and agitation, including grout lines and the drain surround where soils sit.
Food contact surface cleaning and disinfection
From your first call, every food contact surface in the affected zone is washed, rinsed and treated with an appropriate sanitizer at label strength.

Affected area, measured rather than eyeballed
The local service plan is the wet and contaminated footprint, including under equipment. That drives both cleaning labor and the equipment count.Clean supply water versus drain water
For a clear next step close to home, a broken supply line is clean water.How much fixed equipment has to be moved
For a clear next step close to home, every prep table, reach in refrigerator and line unit that gets rolled out is labor.Walk in cooler involvement
With local guidance, metering, opening or replacing a section of cooler panel is skilled work and it interacts with your refrigeration contractor.Overnight and closed hours work
From your first call, working while you are closed is the norm here, and an after hours dispatch charge commonly runs $100 to $400 nationally.Food contact surface cleaning volume
As your nearby response team helps, washing, rinsing and sanitizing every affected surface at label strength takes time and it cannot be rushed.
Why timing matters
What can happen when the area stays wet
As your nearby response team helps, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.
A closure that runs long is the real loss
As your nearby response team helps, wages, spoiled product and lost covers stack up every day the doors stay shut.
Contaminated water spread by mopping becomes a bigger local service plan
With local guidance, pushing drain water across a kitchen carries bacteria into dry areas and under equipment.
Walk in cooler panels fail from between the skins
With local guidance, water that entered at a joint or the base channel is sealed between two steel faces in a room kept cold, with no evaporation path at all.
Wet grout and setting beds keep feeding the smell
As your nearby response team helps, soil left in grout lines and around a drain reactivates as soon as the floor gets wet again.
Helpful service information
What to know about restaurant water cleanup
From your first call, start with the short explanation. As your nearby response team helps, open a card if you want a little more detail.
What is happening inside the property
As your nearby response team helps, food areas have to be clean in a way an inspector can verify, and the building has to be dry in a way a meter can verify.
Read the explanation
With local guidance, a restaurant loss is judged on two standards at once. As your nearby response team helps, food areas have to be clean in a way an inspector can verify, and the building has to be dry in a way a meter can verify.
How the next step is decided
For a clear next step close to home, cooler panels are steel skins over a closed cell foam core, and that foam resists capillary uptake rather than drawing water upward.
Read the explanation
With local guidance, the walk in cooler is the item most often handled wrong. For a clear next step close to home, cooler panels are steel skins over a closed cell foam core, and that foam resists capillary uptake rather than drawing water upward.
What may change the work
As your nearby response team helps, quarry tile sits on a setting bed over concrete, and both are dense, so they release moisture only into very dry air.

Questions about restaurant water cleanup
How much does restaurant water damage cleanup cost?
With local guidance, as national estimates, a dining room only loss commonly runs $2,500 to $8,000. With local guidance, a kitchen and dining room with drain water is often $8,000 to $25,000.
Do we have to close the restaurant?
From your first call, that is your health department's call, not ours. For a clear next step close to home, contaminated water in a food area almost always means closing that area.
How fast can we reopen?
As your nearby response team helps, cleaning and disinfection is usually one overnight shift. As your nearby response team helps, drying commonly runs three to five days, but reopening often happens before drying finishes if the health department clears the food areas.
What food do we have to throw away?
From your first call, anything in permeable packaging, and any can that is dented, rusted, seam damaged or swollen.
Should we tell the health department, or wait?
With local guidance, tell them. From your first call, in most jurisdictions notification is mandatory after a sewage backup or a loss of potable water, so it is not really a choice.
Can our kitchen equipment be saved?
As your nearby response team helps, often, but the decision is not ours. With local guidance, your refrigeration and gas service techs check anything with a motor, a control board or a gas connection.
From your first call, our commercial water heater flooded the closet. What do we shut off?
With local guidance, shut the heater down first, meaning the gas control to off or the breaker off, then close the cold inlet valve.
