How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Hubbard

1. Remove accessible water

• Stop the dishwasher and close an accessible supply valve if the area is safe.
• 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.
