How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Quay

1. Remove accessible water

   If used wash water escaped, the technician considers contamination during removal. At the Quay property, cleanup follows the affected materials.

2. Map the wet materials

   Dry-looking surfaces can hide damp materials below. The crew records those concealed points before drying begins in Quay.

3. Open trapped-water areas

   Contaminated porous material may need removal after a used-water release. The Quay team cleans and sanitizes affected surfaces as appropriate.

4. Dry and verify

• Stop the dishwasher and close an accessible supply valve if the area is safe.
