How Slab Leak Drying Works in Edmore

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

   Surface mopping cannot reach moisture under hardwood. The technician removes accessible water and maps the deeper wet assembly.

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

   Water trapped under a floor covering may require material removal. The scope follows moisture findings and the condition of the finish.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers help affected materials release moisture. Repeat meter readings show progress in Edmore.
