How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Belen

Water can hide beneath a finish after the puddle disappears. A technician measures concealed dampness so drying targets more than the surface.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   Moisture meters show where water moved beneath flooring. The technician marks affected areas for the drying plan.

3. Address soaked layers

   The crew assesses whether each layer can dry safely. Unusable soaked pieces are taken out.

4. Track drying results
