How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in La Salle

1. Remove accessible water

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

3. Open trapped-water areas

• 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.
