How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Gardendale

Delays let liquid remain in contact with floor layers. Extraction begins by removing accessible water, then equipment addresses retained moisture.

1. Remove accessible water

   After the pipe is stopped, the crew clears reachable water. Material condition determines what can remain.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   A dry looking tile face cannot show the condition below. Readings help locate concealed wet layers.

3. Address soaked layers

   The crew assesses whether each layer can dry safely. Unusable soaked pieces are taken out.

4. Track drying results

   Controlled drying continues until affected materials meet the project goal. The final record documents progress.
