How Slab Leak Drying Works in Chester
Water at a wall base can wick upward into drywall. The crew checks that height and opens material when drying requires access.
-
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.
-
Map the wet footprint
The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.
-
Open water holding materials
A saturated wall base may retain water after extraction. The crew removes material when drying in place is not practical.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers and dehumidifiers help affected materials release moisture. Repeat meter readings show progress in Chester.
