How Dishwasher Leak Into Cabinets Cleanup Works in Fay

   A pump or extraction tool removes the liquid that a towel cannot reach. The Fay crew starts with the wettest accessible areas.

3. Open trapped-water areas

   Contaminated porous material may need removal after a used-water release. The Fay team cleans and sanitizes affected surfaces as appropriate.

4. Dry and verify

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

• Leave wet plugs, outlets and appliance wiring alone; an electrician handles hazards.
• Remove dry contents from neighboring cupboards without pulling fixed panels apart.
• Keep cleaning chemicals away from standing water if they can be moved safely.
• Photograph swelling, stains and the position of water before cleanup.
