How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Marathon

1. Remove accessible water

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

2. Map the wet materials

   A moisture meter shows whether the subfloor remains wet beneath finished flooring. The Marathon technician compares affected and dry areas.

3. Open trapped-water areas

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

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers draw moisture from exposed materials. Daily readings show the Marathon crew whether drying is progressing.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Swelling at a cabinet base shows that material has already absorbed water. The crew checks whether drying can save it or whether removal is needed at the Marathon home.

• 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.
• Move loose belongings away from the drip without standing below a sagging area.
• Photograph the kitchen floor and lower ceiling from safe positions.
