How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Ghent

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Prompt extraction reduces the time a floor assembly stays saturated.

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

   If water is trapped beneath a finish, selective access may help drying. The technician explains the reason for the work.

4. Track drying results

   Equipment placement changes if a damp area resists progress. The technician checks readings instead of appearance alone.
