How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Newhall

2. Measure hidden dampness

   The crew checks concrete, floor edges and wall bottoms. Recorded values provide a starting point for drying.

3. Address soaked layers

   A swollen board or saturated wall base may not be retained. Material condition directs removal decisions.

   A surface may look better before hidden layers dry. The crew confirms moisture levels before ending work.
