How Slab Leak Drying Works in Tenaha
Water trapped under hardwood may spread sideways. Moisture readings show where equipment should run before the wet area expands.
-
Extract accessible water
Standing water at a wall edge is removed first. The team then follows its path beneath nearby flooring.
-
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
The team keeps a record of opened areas and damaged material. Finished repair work is quoted after drying.
-
Dry and verify
A dry looking surface is not the endpoint. The technician checks the hidden layers that were wet at the start.
