How Slab Leak Drying Works in Hazlehurst
A surface can look dry while its underside remains wet. The crew measures hidden layers because prolonged moisture raises the risk of growth.
-
Extract accessible water
Water beneath cabinets may emerge at the toe kick. The crew extracts the accessible area and checks farther behind the finish.
-
Map the wet footprint
The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.
-
Open water holding materials
Water trapped under a floor covering may require material removal. The scope follows moisture findings and the condition of the finish.
-
Dry and verify
Moisture levels are compared with suitable unaffected areas. The team then removes equipment when the assembly is documented dry.
