How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Buffalo Gap

-
Measure hidden dampness
The crew checks concrete, floor edges and wall bottoms. Recorded values provide a starting point for drying.

Address soaked layers
A swollen board or saturated wall base may not be retained. Material condition directs removal decisions.

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