How Slab Leak Drying Works in Unity
Fixing the pipe stops new water but leaves damp materials behind. Extraction and repeat readings track the remaining loss.
-
Extract accessible water
Water beneath cabinets may emerge at the toe kick. The crew extracts the accessible area and checks farther behind the finish.
-
Map the wet footprint
Floor edges, wall bases, and cabinet materials receive readings. These checks show whether the water crossed a room boundary.
-
Open water holding materials
A saturated wall base may retain water after extraction. The crew removes material when drying in place is not practical.
-
Dry and verify
The closeout record can include the wet map, removed materials, and final readings. The insurer applies the policy to any claim.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Winter heating can make a floor feel warm, so temperature alone cannot prove a leak. Plumbing and moisture checks clarify the issue.
