How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Sigel

Wet porous material can support mold growth within 24 to 48 hours. The crew identifies damp areas that deserve prompt drying.

1. Remove accessible water

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

2. Measure hidden dampness

   The wet footprint can extend beyond the first stain. Meter readings shape targeted equipment placement.

3. Address soaked layers

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

4. Track drying results

   Equipment placement changes if a damp area resists progress. The technician checks readings instead of appearance alone.
