How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Geneva
Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Prompt extraction reduces the time a floor assembly stays saturated.
-
Remove accessible water
Standing liquid is lifted from exposed areas. The technician also looks for water at wall and cabinet bases.
-
Measure hidden dampness
Cabinet bases and adjoining closets may have absorbed water. Mapping checks those low areas.
-
Address soaked layers
Adhesive, underlayment and floor covering can respond differently to water. The plan follows the assembly.
-
Track drying results
A surface may look better before hidden layers dry. The crew confirms moisture levels before ending work.
