How Dishwasher Leak Cleanup Works in Gilroy

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

3. Open trapped-water areas

   Opening only the necessary wet areas gives equipment a path to the structure. The Gilroy technician documents each material taken out.
