Dishwasher Overflow & Flood Damage
Kitchen floors and cabinets are expensive. A dishwasher overflow can destroy both within hours — especially with Florida's mold-friendly heat and humidity. Do not wait.

The dishwasher sits under your counter — water escapes at floor level and immediately goes under cabinets and flooring where it is invisible.
Cabinet Kickplates & Base
Water enters through the toe kick and saturates particle board cabinet bases. Particle board swells irreversibly in under 4 hours — early intervention saves your cabinetry.
Hardwood & LVP Flooring
Water under hardwood causes cupping, buckling, and delamination. Luxury vinyl planks trap moisture underneath. Professional drying mats are required.
Subfloor Damage
If water reaches the subfloor, OSB and plywood swell and delaminate, requiring costly replacement if not dried within 24-48 hours.
Hidden Mold
The enclosed space under kitchen cabinets is dark, warm, and — after a flood — wet. Perfect mold conditions that can go undetected for months.
Common Dishwasher Failure Points
Door gasket worn or torn — water escapes every cycle
Float switch failure — machine overfills without stopping
Drain hose kinked or disconnected at garbage disposal
Water inlet valve stuck open — continuous fill
Detergent overload (using dish soap instead of dishwasher detergent)
Pump or motor seal failure — water released internally
