How Dishwasher Leak Under Floor Cleanup Works in Pilot Station

1. Remove accessible water

   A pump or extraction tool removes the liquid that a towel cannot reach. The Pilot Station crew starts with the wettest accessible areas.

2. Map the wet materials

   Dry-looking surfaces can hide damp materials below. The crew records those concealed points before drying begins in Pilot Station.

3. Open trapped-water areas

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

4. Dry and verify

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

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Swelling at a cabinet base shows that material has already absorbed water. The crew checks whether drying can save it or whether removal is needed at the Pilot Station home.

• Stop running the dishwasher and close its accessible water valve if the area is safe.
• Keep people off soft or lifted flooring to avoid further damage.
• Avoid using wet outlets, cords or the appliance; an electrician handles electrical hazards.
• Move loose items from the wet floor without pulling up fixed flooring.
• Photograph the water path and floor changes before cleanup starts.
