How Dishwasher Leak Cleanup Works in Pungoteague

1. Remove accessible water

   The extraction technician pulls standing water from the kitchen surface and accessible floor edges. In Pungoteague, the source trade addresses the failed appliance or connection.

2. Map the wet materials

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