How Slab Leak Drying Works in Argyle

1. Extract accessible water

   Water beneath cabinets may emerge at the toe kick. The crew extracts the accessible area and checks farther behind the finish.

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

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

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers help affected materials release moisture. Repeat meter readings show progress in Argyle.
