How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Mesa

1. Remove accessible water

   Cabinet bases, wallboard and the appliance opening receive separate checks. This map helps the Mesa crew place drying equipment.

3. Open trapped-water areas

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