How Slab Leak Drying Service Works in Hobson

1. Remove accessible water

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

2. Measure hidden dampness

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

3. Address soaked layers

   Only materials that can be dried are left in place. The crew records any removal for the property owner.

4. Track drying results

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

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A cabinet toe kick may absorb water while the room looks nearly dry. The restoration worker checks low materials before ending the dry-out.

• Ask a plumber to stop the buried leak if water still flows.
• Keep people away from wet outlets and electrical devices.
• Move portable belongings out of the damp area.
• Record visible stains, swelling and water levels.
• Avoid covering damp floors with rugs or plastic sheets.
