How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Colt

1. Remove accessible water

2. Map the wet materials

   A leak from an upper floor may reach insulation and a lower ceiling. The assessor checks both levels of the Colt home.

3. Open trapped-water areas

   A damaged toe kick can block airflow around wet cabinet bases. The Colt crew opens access when material conditions require it.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers draw moisture from exposed materials. Daily readings show the Colt crew whether drying is progressing.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• 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.
• Photograph the kitchen floor and lower ceiling from safe positions.
