What Dishwasher Leak Into Cabinets Cleanup Includes in Marthaville

A slow drip can saturate a cabinet before anyone sees water. Once the source is stopped, the drying team checks particleboard, drywall and subflooring at the Marthaville address.

• Leave wet plugs, outlets and appliance wiring alone; an electrician handles hazards.
• Remove dry contents from neighboring cupboards without pulling fixed panels apart.
