How Slab Leak Drying Works in Rolling Prairie

Water at a wall base can wick upward into drywall. The crew checks that height and opens material when drying requires access.

   A warm spot can suggest a supply line issue, but the plumber determines the source. The drying technician measures the damage it caused.

3. Open water holding materials

   Soaked carpet pad may be removed so the floor below can dry. The crew documents what comes out.
