Appliance leaks run where nobody looks: under the dishwasher, behind the fridge and into the floor under a washing machine. By the time the floor feels soft or a ceiling stains below, the water has spread through several layers.

Appliance and Supply Hose Leaks, explained
Common appliance failures
- Rubber washer hoses that split with age
- Dishwasher door seals and drain connections
- Plastic ice maker tubes that crack behind the fridge
- Toilet and sink supply hoses with worn fittings
Under the cabinets
Kitchen cabinets sit on the subfloor with a sealed toe kick in front. Water that runs under them stays trapped. The crew reads the cabinet bases and, when needed, removes the toe kick to push dry air under the boxes instead of tearing them out.
Washer leaks reach the floor below
A washer on the main floor or upstairs sends water through the subfloor into the ceiling below. Both levels are mapped and dried as one system.
Gray water changes the plan
Water from a washer drain or a dishwasher is Category 2. Pad usually comes out and surfaces get an antimicrobial. Clean supply water extracted fast can often dry in place.
