How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Saint Jacob

Water can hide beneath a finish after the puddle disappears. A technician measures concealed dampness so drying targets more than the surface.

1. Remove accessible water

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

2. Measure hidden dampness

   A technician compares materials and nearby dry areas. This helps define the actual scope of the loss.

3. Address soaked layers

   Only materials that can be dried are left in place. The crew records any removal for the property owner.

4. Track drying results

   Daily moisture records help verify the dry-out. Replacement finishes wait until conditions are suitable.
