How Slab Leak Drying Works in Tennent

Wet carpet pad can hold moisture beneath an apparently dry pile. Removing soaked pad may be needed to expose the floor for drying.

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.

2. Map the wet footprint

   Floor edges, wall bases, and cabinet materials receive readings. These checks show whether the water crossed a room boundary.

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

   Drying equipment runs as needed after the pipe source is controlled. The final record notes the condition reached.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Pipes in exterior walls may be vulnerable during a cold snap. A plumber checks the source, and the crew checks water damage.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

The visible stain may not show the full wet footprint. Moisture mapping gives the insurer a clearer description of the affected materials. The policy still controls payment.

• Document every affected room.
• Record when the source was stopped.
• Ask how the deductible applies.

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
