How Slab Leak Drying Service Works in Ocean Park

1. Remove accessible water

   Standing liquid is lifted from exposed areas. The technician also looks for water at wall and cabinet bases.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   Cabinet bases and adjoining closets may have absorbed water. Mapping checks those low areas.

3. Address soaked layers

   A swollen board or saturated wall base may not be retained. Material condition directs removal decisions.

   Daily moisture records help verify the dry-out. Replacement finishes wait until conditions are suitable.

• Keep people away from wet outlets and electrical devices.
