How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Phillips

Remove accessible water
Standing liquid is lifted from exposed areas. The technician also looks for water at wall and cabinet bases.
-
Measure hidden dampness
A dry looking tile face cannot show the condition below. Readings help locate concealed wet layers.
-
Address soaked layers
Only materials that can be dried are left in place. The crew records any removal for the property owner.
-
Track drying results
A surface may look better before hidden layers dry. The crew confirms moisture levels before ending work.
