How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Hadley

1. Remove accessible water

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

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

• Keep people out from under bulging or dripping ceiling drywall.
• Avoid wet light switches and fixtures; an electrician handles electrical hazards.
