How Slab Leak Drying Works in Wiconisco

A surface can look dry while its underside remains wet. The crew measures hidden layers because prolonged moisture raises the risk of growth.

1. Extract accessible water

   The operator chooses extraction equipment based on water depth and floor material. A tile room and a carpeted room need different handling.

2. Map the wet footprint

   The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.

3. Open water holding materials

   Soaked carpet pad may be removed so the floor below can dry. The crew documents what comes out.

4. Dry and verify

   Moisture levels are compared with suitable unaffected areas. The team then removes equipment when the assembly is documented dry.
