How Slab Leak Drying Works in Moretown

A surface can look dry while its underside remains wet. The crew measures hidden layers because prolonged moisture raises the risk of growth.

  1. Extract accessible water

    Standing water at a wall edge is removed first. The team then follows its path beneath nearby flooring.

  2. Map the wet footprint

    Floor edges, wall bases, and cabinet materials receive readings. These checks show whether the water crossed a room boundary.

  3. Open water holding materials

    Cabinet toe kicks can block air from reaching a wet base. Opening an affected section may expose it for drying.

  4. Dry and verify

    Drying equipment runs as needed after the pipe source is controlled. The final record notes the condition reached.
