Dishwasher leak cleanup in a Providence kitchen

We got called out for a dishwasher leak that had spread water across a Providence kitchen floor and under the base cabinets.

The thermal scan along the toe kicks and floor showed the wet areas, so the kitchen was emptied and boxed and the dishwasher pulled before any flooring came up. Containment went up next, in case there was mold under the cabinets, then the plank flooring came out down to the slab and the toe kicks were cut out. The island countertop sat on temporary wood legs while the bases dried.
