How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Alexis

A cabinet toe kick may absorb water while the room looks nearly dry. The restoration worker checks low materials before ending the dry-out.

1. Remove accessible water

   The first pass reduces contact between water and finishes. A deeper moisture check follows extraction.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   The crew checks concrete, floor edges and wall bottoms. Recorded values provide a starting point for drying.

3. Address soaked layers

   The crew assesses whether each layer can dry safely. Unusable soaked pieces are taken out.

4. Track drying results

   The crew monitors the wet area during drying. Final measurements support the handoff to finishing trades.
