What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Even clean supply water can become a problem after prolonged contact with dirt or building materials. The Compton assessor identifies the water path and sets the cleaning scope.
- Stop the wash cycle and avoid opening the dishwasher if water is still moving toward electrics.
- Keep children and pets away from used wash water.
- Do not touch wet outlets or power cords; leave electrical concerns to an electrician.
- Move dry items away from the spreading edge without walking through deep water.
- Take pictures of the water boundary and affected materials when safe.
