Dishwasher Leak Water Removal FAQ for Old Hickory
What are signs I need help after a dishwasher leak?
Water under the unit, swollen cabinets, soft floor spots, cupped flooring and a musty smell in the kitchen.
Can my cabinets be saved after dishwasher water damage?
Solid wood and plywood often can. Particleboard cabinet bottoms that swelled usually need to be replaced.
Why is quick action important for a dishwasher flood?
Water spreads under cabinets and flooring and soaks the subfloor quickly, so every hour adds damage.
Is water damaged floor removal always necessary after a dishwasher leak?
No. Tile can often stay. Laminate, vinyl plank and wood that trapped water usually come up near the dishwasher.
Does kitchen water extraction include the area under appliances?
Yes. The dishwasher and nearby appliances are moved so the floor beneath them can be extracted and dried.
