How Slab Leak Drying Works in Garfield

A surface can look dry while its underside remains wet. The crew measures hidden layers because prolonged moisture raises the risk of growth.

1. Extract accessible water

   Standing water at a wall edge is removed first. The team then follows its path beneath nearby flooring.

2. Map the wet footprint

   The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.

3. Open water holding materials

   A saturated wall base may retain water after extraction. The crew removes material when drying in place is not practical.

4. Dry and verify

   A dry looking surface is not the endpoint. The technician checks the hidden layers that were wet at the start.
