How Slab Leak Drying Works in Waccabuc

Tile can conceal damp adhesive and grout edges. A technician checks neighboring materials instead of judging the job by the tile surface.

1. Extract accessible water

   Water beneath cabinets may emerge at the toe kick. The crew extracts the accessible area and checks farther behind the finish.

2. Map the wet footprint

   Floor edges, wall bases, and cabinet materials receive readings. These checks show whether the water crossed a room boundary.

3. 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.

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.
