How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Eatontown

1. Remove accessible water

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

• 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.

• Photograph the kitchen floor and lower ceiling from safe positions.
