How Slab Leak Drying Works in Lumpkin
Wet carpet pad can hold moisture beneath an apparently dry pile. Removing soaked pad may be needed to expose the floor for drying.
-
Extract accessible water

-
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.
