Signs to look for

When to call us for restaurant water cleanup

Room by room, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

Water is standing away from the floor drain instead of running to it

Room by room, 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.

The floor drain or mop sink is gurgling during a busy service

Room by room, 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

Room by room, 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

Room by room, 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

To help your home recover, 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 practical next step, front of house carpet hides water because the pattern and the low light forgive everything.

What happens

How we handle restaurant water cleanup

Our home recovery 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

Room by room, we identify whether this is supply water, drain water or outside water, because that sets the whole recovery plan.

Food disposal documented against the Food Code

For a practical next step, 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 practical next step, drain water and grease trap water are contained and extracted to controlled disposal.

Equipment moved out and the floor beneath it recovered

Our home recovery 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

After you describe the problem, floors are cleaned with detergent and agitation, including grout lines and the drain surround where soils sit.

Food contact surface cleaning and disinfection

To help your home recover, every food contact surface in the affected zone is washed, rinsed and treated with an appropriate sanitizer at label strength.

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

Room by room, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. Room by room, these examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situationWhat the estimate may includeTypical range
Dining room only, clean water, extraction, cleaning and dryingTo help your home recover, national estimate. Room by room, carpet extraction, banquette handling and three to four days of drying.$2,500 to $8,000
Commercial kitchen and dining room, drain water, cleaning, disinfection and dryingTo help your home recover, national estimate. After you describe the problem, contained extraction, equipment moves, food surface work and controlled disposal.$8,000 to $25,000
Restaurant cleanup priced by affected area, clean waterTo help your home recover, national estimate. Room by room, the commercial band, applied to supply line and appliance water in either half of the building.$4 to $9 per square foot
Contaminated water cleanup priced by affected areaTo help your home recover, national estimate. To help your home recover, floor drain, grease trap and sewer water sit in this commercial band.$9 to $18 per square foot
Walk in cooler panel section removal and dryingTo help your home recover, national estimate. After you describe the problem, excludes your refrigeration contractor's disconnect and reconnect.$1,500 to $6,000
Quarry tile, grout and drain surround deep cleaningTo help your home recover, national estimate. Room by room, detergent cleaning with agitation, then sanitizer at label strength.$600 to $2,500
Contaminated debris and discarded product removal, per container loadTo help your home recover, national estimate. Room by room, controlled disposal, documented for your loss record.$400 to $900
After hours or overnight dispatch chargeTo help your home recover, national estimate. After you describe the problem, almost every restaurant job includes closed hours work.$100 to $400

  • Affected area, measured rather than eyeballed
    The recovery 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 practical next step, a broken supply line is clean water.

  • How much fixed equipment has to be moved
    For a practical next step, every prep table, reach in refrigerator and line unit that gets rolled out is labor.

  • Walk in cooler involvement
    Room by room, metering, opening or replacing a section of cooler panel is skilled work and it interacts with your refrigeration contractor.

  • Overnight and closed hours work
    To help your home recover, 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
    After you describe the problem, 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

After you describe the problem, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

A closure that runs long is the real loss

After you describe the problem, wages, spoiled product and lost covers stack up every day the doors stay shut.

Contaminated water spread by mopping becomes a bigger recovery plan

Room by room, pushing drain water across a kitchen carries bacteria into dry areas and under equipment.

Walk in cooler panels fail from between the skins

Room by room, 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

After you describe the problem, 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

To help your home recover, start with the short explanation. After you describe the problem, open a card if you want a little more detail.

What is happening inside the property

After you describe the problem, 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

Room by room, a restaurant loss is judged on two standards at once. After you describe the problem, 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 practical next step, 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

Room by room, the walk in cooler is the item most often handled wrong. For a practical next step, 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

After you describe the problem, quarry tile sits on a setting bed over concrete, and both are dense, so they release moisture only into very dry air.

Read the explanation

To help your home recover, kitchen floors are the slow half of a restaurant dry down. After you describe the problem, quarry tile sits on a setting bed over concrete, and both are dense, so they release moisture only into very dry air.

Common questions

Questions about restaurant water cleanup

How much does restaurant water damage cleanup cost?

Room by room, as national estimates, a dining room only loss commonly runs $2,500 to $8,000. Room by room, a kitchen and dining room with drain water is often $8,000 to $25,000.

Do we have to close the restaurant?

To help your home recover, that is your health department's call, not ours. For a practical next step, contaminated water in a food area almost always means closing that area.

How fast can we reopen?

After you describe the problem, cleaning and disinfection is usually one overnight shift. After you describe the problem, 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?

To help your home recover, anything in permeable packaging, and any can that is dented, rusted, seam damaged or swollen.

Should we tell the health department, or wait?

Room by room, tell them. To help your home recover, 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?

After you describe the problem, often, but the decision is not ours. To help your home recover, your refrigeration and gas service techs look over anything with a motor, a control board or a gas connection.

To help your home recover, our commercial water heater flooded the closet. What do we shut off?

Room by room, shut the heater down first, meaning the gas control to off or the breaker off, then close the cold inlet valve.
