How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Kaweah

   Contaminated porous material may need removal after a used-water release. The Kaweah team cleans and sanitizes affected surfaces as appropriate.

4. Dry and verify

   Equipment remains in place according to measured conditions, not a fixed calendar. The technician records final results for the Kaweah owner.

• Keep people out from under bulging or dripping ceiling drywall.
• Avoid wet light switches and fixtures; an electrician handles electrical hazards.
