How Slab Leak Drying Works in Oliver
Water trapped under hardwood may spread sideways. Moisture readings show where equipment should run before the wet area expands.
-
Extract accessible water
The operator chooses extraction equipment based on water depth and floor material. A tile room and a carpeted room need different handling.

Map the wet footprint
The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.
-
Open water holding materials
Cabinet toe kicks can block air from reaching a wet base. Opening an affected section may expose it for drying.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers and dehumidifiers help affected materials release moisture. Repeat meter readings show progress in Oliver.
