Appliance leaks hide behind cabinets and flooring
Kitchen appliance leaks are often found late because the source sits behind a refrigerator, under a dishwasher, or inside a cabinet. By the time the homeowner sees water, the damage may already be under flooring, at cabinet bases, inside wall openings, or into nearby carpet and pad.
PL Builders can help with free leak detection support, moisture checks, documentation, and the repair path after the appliance source is controlled. If a plumber or appliance specialist is needed, PL Builders can coordinate that work while handling the construction repairs.
