A dishwasher shares narrow gaps with neighboring cabinets. A leak can enter those gaps and reach unfinished panel edges before the homeowner sees a puddle. Particleboard and other composite materials may swell, separate or lose strength after soaking.

1. Remove accessible water

   Visible water is recovered first, then the technician checks for concealed spread. The Ward dry-out is based on material readings.

2. Map the wet materials

   If flooring traps moisture against underlayment, the technician may lift affected sections. The drying plan at the Ward property follows the actual assembly.

4. Dry and verify

   Measured progress determines when dehumidification ends. The final Ward report documents the dry-out and any removed material.
