How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Strawn

Carpet pad and wall bases hold water against porous materials. The crew checks these layers and removes soaked pieces when needed.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   A dry looking tile face cannot show the condition below. Readings help locate concealed wet layers.

3. Address soaked layers

   The crew assesses whether each layer can dry safely. Unusable soaked pieces are taken out.

4. Track drying results

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