How Slab Leak Drying Works in Cloutierville

Water at a wall base can wick upward into drywall. The crew checks that height and opens material when drying requires access.

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

   Moisture meters help trace slab leak water beyond the visible stain. The technician records affected rooms and nearby dry comparison areas.

3. Open water holding materials

   The team keeps a record of opened areas and damaged material. Finished repair work is quoted after drying.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew monitors the floor and wall bases until readings support ending the dry out. Equipment run time depends on the wet materials.
