Complete Dishwasher Leak Water Removal for Kenmore
Cabinet Water Damage Cleanup
The sink base cabinet is checked too, since the dishwasher drain and supply lines run through it.
Dishwasher Leak Water Extraction
Dishwasher water carries food and detergent, so the floor and cabinet bases are cleaned after extraction and before drying.
Kitchen Floor Drying Services
Kitchen floors around the dishwasher are dried with air movers and dehumidifiers, and flooring that trapped water underneath is lifted where needed.
Dishwasher Leak Mold Prevention
Slow dishwasher leaks give mold time to start under the unit, so that area is checked closely once it is dry.
Wet Subfloor Repair
Floor joists under the kitchen are checked from below if there is a crawl space or lower level, since water can reach them too.
