What Dishwasher Overflow Cleanup Includes in Washburn
Used wash water may require cleaning before materials dry. During dishwasher overflow cleanup, the Washburn crew assesses the actual water condition.
An overflowing dishwasher can send water across the kitchen before anyone notices the cycle has failed. The puddle is only the visible part of the loss. Liquid may run beneath a refrigerator, through a doorway or into the bottom of a cabinet.
The appliance technician may need access behind the unit. A restoration worker evaluates wet surfaces there after electrical conditions are safe.

- Keep people away from wet cords, outlets and appliance controls.
- Close a reachable dishwasher supply valve if the water keeps coming.
- Lift small dry items away from the spill using a safe route.
- Take photos from dry flooring before wiping up accessible water.
