How Slab Leak Drying Works in Gallaway
Fixing the pipe stops new water but leaves damp materials behind. Extraction and repeat readings track the remaining loss.
-
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
Baseboard or a small section of wet finish may need opening for airflow. The technician explains the drying reason for that access.
-
Dry and verify
The crew monitors the floor and wall bases until readings support ending the dry out. Equipment run time depends on the wet materials.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
An occasional hard freeze can expose weak plumbing. A wet slab floor needs extraction even after temperatures rebound.
