How Slab Leak Drying Works in Hoisington

Wet carpet pad can hold moisture beneath an apparently dry pile. Removing soaked pad may be needed to expose the floor for drying.

1. Extract accessible water

   Water beneath cabinets may emerge at the toe kick. The crew extracts the accessible area and checks farther behind the finish.

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

   Cabinet toe kicks can block air from reaching a wet base. Opening an affected section may expose it for drying.

4. Dry and verify

   The closeout record can include the wet map, removed materials, and final readings. The insurer applies the policy to any claim.
