How Slab Leak Drying Works in Jacobsburg

A surface can look dry while its underside remains wet. The crew measures hidden layers because prolonged moisture raises the risk of growth.

2. Map the wet footprint

   Moisture meters help trace slab leak water beyond the visible stain. The technician records affected rooms and nearby dry comparison areas.

   A saturated wall base may retain water after extraction. The crew removes material when drying in place is not practical.

4. Dry and verify
