How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Allen Junction

1. Remove accessible water

2. Map the wet materials

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

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