How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Morton

1. Remove accessible water

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

2. Map the wet materials

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

3. Open trapped-water areas
