How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Dover

Carpet pad and wall bases hold water against porous materials. The crew checks these layers and removes soaked pieces when needed.

   The wet footprint can extend beyond the first stain. Meter readings shape targeted equipment placement.

3. Address soaked layers

   Wet pad and damaged porous materials may need removal. The crew documents what was affected before opening it.

4. Track drying results

   A surface may look better before hidden layers dry. The crew confirms moisture levels before ending work.
