How Kitchen Slab Leak Water Drying Works in Caledonia

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

   Initial readings establish the starting condition. Later measurements show whether the drying plan is working.

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

   The closeout record can include the wet map, removed materials, and final readings. The insurer applies the policy to any claim.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Wet materials can support growth within 24 to 48 hours. Call (888) 849-5796 when a slab leak soaks carpet, wood, or wall bases.

• Shut off the water supply from a safe dry position if the leak continues.
• Keep wet kitchen appliances off until an appropriate trade checks them.
• Move loose items from dry cabinet shelves without touching damaged wiring.
• Photograph swollen toe kicks, floor seams and the path of spreading water.
• Avoid pulling out a heavy dishwasher or cutting cabinet bases yourself.
