How Slab Leak Drying Works in Gilmanton
Water at a wall base can wick upward into drywall. The crew checks that height and opens material when drying requires access.
-
Extract accessible water
The crew removes pooled water in Gilmanton before it can reach more floor area. Extraction tools pull moisture from surfaces that permit access.
-
Map the wet footprint
The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.
-
Open water holding materials
Cabinet toe kicks can block air from reaching a wet base. Opening an affected section may expose it for drying.
-
Dry and verify
A dry looking surface is not the endpoint. The technician checks the hidden layers that were wet at the start.
