An overflowing dishwasher can send water across the kitchen before anyone notices the cycle has failed. The puddle is only the visible part of the loss. Liquid may run beneath a refrigerator, through a doorway or into the bottom of a cabinet.
Machine service and water restoration can proceed as separate tasks. The homeowner should keep the dishwasher off until its fault is checked.
