How Slab Leak Wet Carpet Cleanup Works in La Luz

1. Remove accessible water

   The first pass reduces contact between water and finishes. A deeper moisture check follows extraction.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   Cabinet bases and adjoining closets may have absorbed water. Mapping checks those low areas.

3. Address soaked layers

   Only materials that can be dried are left in place. The crew records any removal for the property owner.

4. Track drying results

   A surface may look better before hidden layers dry. The crew confirms moisture levels before ending work.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Concrete can release moisture slowly through a covered floor. Controlled drying and repeated readings show whether conditions are improving.

• Shut off the water if a safe supply valve is accessible.
• Keep children and pets out of the wet carpeted area.
• Lift lightweight belongings from the wet floor.
• Photograph the wet patch and affected furniture.
• Avoid running a household vacuum on wet carpet.
