How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Charlestown

   Floor water is removed with suitable extraction tools. Soaked porous layers are evaluated for possible removal.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   Cabinet bases and adjoining closets may have absorbed water. Mapping checks those low areas.

3. Address soaked layers

   A swollen board or saturated wall base may not be retained. Material condition directs removal decisions.

4. Track drying results

   A surface may look better before hidden layers dry. The crew confirms moisture levels before ending work.
