How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Leighton

Water can hide beneath a finish after the puddle disappears. A technician measures concealed dampness so drying targets more than the surface.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   The wet footprint can extend beyond the first stain. Meter readings shape targeted equipment placement.

3. Address soaked layers

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

4. Track drying results

   A surface may look better before hidden layers dry. The crew confirms moisture levels before ending work.

• Describe the first sign accurately.
