How Slab Leak Drying Works in Blanch
Cabinet bases and drywall absorb water from a slab leak. Prompt drying helps keep those porous materials from staying saturated.
-
Extract accessible water
Surface mopping cannot reach moisture under hardwood. The technician removes accessible water and maps the deeper wet assembly.
-
Map the wet footprint
Water can travel under tile into an adjacent wall. A moisture map identifies the materials that need continued attention.
-
Open water holding materials
The team keeps a record of opened areas and damaged material. Finished repair work is quoted after drying.

Dry and verify
A dry looking surface is not the endpoint. The technician checks the hidden layers that were wet at the start.
