How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Crook

1. Remove accessible water

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

   A damaged toe kick can block airflow around wet cabinet bases. The Crook crew opens access when material conditions require it.

4. Dry and verify

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

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