How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Chattaroy

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

   Standing liquid is lifted from exposed areas. The technician also looks for water at wall and cabinet bases.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   Cabinet bases and adjoining closets may have absorbed water. Mapping checks those low areas.

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.
