How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Hedrick

A cabinet toe kick may absorb water while the room looks nearly dry. The restoration worker checks low materials before ending the dry-out.

1. Remove accessible water

   The crew extracts pooled water before it continues soaking the floor assembly. Wet edges are checked beyond the obvious puddle.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   The wet footprint can extend beyond the first stain. Meter readings shape targeted equipment placement.

3. Address soaked layers

   Adhesive, underlayment and floor covering can respond differently to water. The plan follows the assembly.

4. Track drying results

   The crew monitors the wet area during drying. Final measurements support the handoff to finishing trades.
