How Dishwasher Leak Into Cabinets Cleanup Works in Frakes

1. Remove accessible water

• Stop using the dishwasher and close the accessible supply valve when safe.
• Leave wet plugs, outlets and appliance wiring alone; an electrician handles hazards.
• Remove dry contents from neighboring cupboards without pulling fixed panels apart.
• Keep cleaning chemicals away from standing water if they can be moved safely.
• Photograph swelling, stains and the position of water before cleanup.
