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 a free leak and moisture check, documentation, and the repair path after the appliance source is found. As the general contractor, PL Builders manages needed trades and the finished construction repairs.

Common appliance leak searches
Homeowners often search by the appliance first: refrigerator water line leak, ice maker line leak, dishwasher leak under cabinets, washing machine overflow, water heater leak, wet kitchen floor, cabinet water damage, or water under flooring. PL Builders connects those searches to the real repair question: what got wet, what needs to be dried or removed, and how the kitchen or laundry area gets put back together.
