How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Clarendon

1. Remove accessible water

   The crew collects liquid from seams and nearby cabinets to limit continued absorption. A Clarendon assessment defines where work begins.

2. Map the wet materials

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

3. Open trapped-water areas

   A damaged toe kick can block airflow around wet cabinet bases. The Clarendon crew opens access when material conditions require it.

4. Dry and verify

• Keep people out from under bulging or dripping ceiling drywall.
• Avoid wet light switches and fixtures; an electrician handles electrical hazards.
• Move loose belongings away from the drip without standing below a sagging area.
