So we had a new dishwasher installed a few months ago. Super expensive D/W installed by Home Depot expo service guys. Last night I noticed the wooden floor in front of the dishwasher is buckling and opened up the sink cabinet and the cabinet floor is puffed up and damaged. On inspection, the drain hose isn’t hooked up very well and is leaking. We don’t use the D/W that often, so it’s probably taken a while to notice it. Or maybe just loosened up to point of leaking?
IMO, the installers are responsible for the damage, but how do you even fix the floor and sink cabinet without ripping everything out and replacing it? Will the buckling go down on its own once it dries out? Should we put weights or something on it to help? Trying to figure out what we actually want done before going back to the installers.
