How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Bovina

1. Remove accessible water

   If used wash water escaped, the technician considers contamination during removal. At the Bovina property, cleanup follows the affected materials.

2. Map the wet materials

   Cabinet bases, wallboard and the appliance opening receive separate checks. This map helps the Bovina crew place drying equipment.

• Stop the dishwasher and close an accessible supply valve if the area is safe.
• Keep people out from under bulging or dripping ceiling drywall.
• Avoid wet light switches and fixtures; an electrician handles electrical hazards.
