How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Lamartine

1. Remove accessible water

2. Map the wet materials

   A leak from an upper floor may reach insulation and a lower ceiling. The assessor checks both levels of the Lamartine home.

3. Open trapped-water areas

   A wet ceiling cavity can hold insulation above the visible stain. The crew creates access at the Lamartine home when that layer cannot dry closed.

4. Dry and verify

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

• 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.
