How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Odum

1. Remove accessible water

   Water behind the toe kick may need access before extraction. The local team opens the necessary area in the Odum kitchen.

   Opening only the necessary wet areas gives equipment a path to the structure. The Odum technician documents each material taken out.

   Cabinets, subflooring and wallboard can dry at different rates. The local team monitors each affected layer at the Odum address.

• 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.
