How Slab Leak Water Extraction and Drying Works in Haddonfield

1. Extract accessible water

   Wet carpet receives targeted extraction where the material can be saved. The technician checks the pad separately because it can retain water.

2. Map the wet footprint

   The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.

3. Open water holding materials

   The team keeps a record of opened areas and damaged material. Finished repair work is quoted after drying.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew monitors the floor and wall bases until readings support ending the dry out. Equipment run time depends on the wet materials.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Water at a wall base can wick upward into drywall. The crew checks that height and opens material when drying requires access.

• Turn off the main supply only if the valve is reachable from a dry place.
• Call a plumber for the pipe beneath the slab.
• Stay clear of wet outlets, cords and powered appliances.
• Photograph visible water and note which rooms are changing.
• Avoid drilling, cutting concrete or lifting attached flooring yourself.
