How Dishwasher Overflow Cleanup Works in Fanwood

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 Fanwood home.

3. Open trapped-water areas

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

4. Dry and verify

   The crew checks comparison materials before declaring the wet structure dry. A Fanwood rebuild contractor can then scope finishes.

• Keep children and pets away from used wash water.
• Do not touch wet outlets or power cords; leave electrical concerns to an electrician.
• Move dry items away from the spreading edge without walking through deep water.
