How Slab Leak Wet Carpet Cleanup Works in Seneca

1. Remove accessible water

   Floor water is removed with suitable extraction tools. Soaked porous layers are evaluated for possible removal.

• Shut off the water if a safe supply valve is accessible.
• Keep children and pets out of the wet carpeted area.
• Lift lightweight belongings from the wet floor.
• Photograph the wet patch and affected furniture.
• Avoid running a household vacuum on wet carpet.
