How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Dix
Water under tile may not appear until it reaches a wall edge. The crew checks adjoining spaces before deciding the drying footprint.
-
Remove accessible water
The technician begins at visible water and extends assessment into adjacent rooms. Extraction addresses accessible liquid.
-
Measure hidden dampness
Cabinet bases and adjoining closets may have absorbed water. Mapping checks those low areas.

Address soaked layers
A swollen board or saturated wall base may not be retained. Material condition directs removal decisions.

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