How Dishwasher Leak Cleanup Works in South Lake Tahoe

2. Map the wet materials

   Cabinet bases, wallboard and the appliance opening receive separate checks. This map helps the South Lake Tahoe crew place drying equipment.

3. Open trapped-water areas

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

4. Dry and verify

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