How Dishwasher Leak Into Ceiling Below Cleanup Works in Farmington

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

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