How Dishwasher Leak Cleanup Works in Meraux

Water under vinyl can remain after the top feels dry. Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on damp materials, so the Meraux crew checks the subfloor promptly.

2. Map the wet materials

   Dry-looking surfaces can hide damp materials below. The crew records those concealed points before drying begins in Meraux.

3. Open trapped-water areas
