How Slab Leak Drying Service Works in Gladstone

1. Remove accessible water

2. Measure hidden dampness

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

3. Address soaked layers

   Only materials that can be dried are left in place. The crew records any removal for the property owner.

4. Track drying results

   Equipment placement changes if a damp area resists progress. The technician checks readings instead of appearance alone.

• Keep people away from wet outlets and electrical devices.
• Move portable belongings out of the damp area.
