How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Marietta

Water under tile may not appear until it reaches a wall edge. The crew checks adjoining spaces before deciding the drying footprint.

3. Address soaked layers

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