How Slab Leak Drying Works in Gateway
Fixing the pipe stops new water but leaves damp materials behind. Extraction and repeat readings track the remaining loss.
-
Extract accessible water
The operator chooses extraction equipment based on water depth and floor material. A tile room and a carpeted room need different handling.
-
Map the wet footprint
A warm spot can suggest a supply line issue, but the plumber determines the source. The drying technician measures the damage it caused.
-
Open water holding materials
A saturated wall base may retain water after extraction. The crew removes material when drying in place is not practical.
-
Dry and verify
Moisture levels are compared with suitable unaffected areas. The team then removes equipment when the assembly is documented dry.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
A sudden temperature drop may stress fittings. The pipe cause does not change the need to dry wet wall bases.
