How Dishwasher Leak Into Cabinets Cleanup Works in Mallie

1. Remove accessible water

   The crew collects liquid from seams and nearby cabinets to limit continued absorption. A Mallie assessment defines where work begins.

2. Map the wet materials

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

3. Open trapped-water areas

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

4. Dry and verify

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

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• 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.
