How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Cat Spring

Warmth from a hot pipe does not make a slab leak harmless. Water can still reach wood, drywall and adhesive beneath flooring.

1. Remove accessible water

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

2. Measure hidden dampness

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

3. Address soaked layers

   Wet pad and damaged porous materials may need removal. The crew documents what was affected before opening it.

4. Track drying results

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