What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Warmth from a hot pipe does not make a slab leak harmless. Water can still reach wood, drywall and adhesive beneath flooring.
- Shut off the water if a safe supply valve is accessible.
- Keep children and pets out of the wet carpeted area.
- Lift lightweight belongings from the wet floor.
- Photograph the wet patch and affected furniture.
- Avoid running a household vacuum on wet carpet.
