How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Rensselaer

   Moisture meters show where water moved beneath flooring. The technician marks affected areas for the drying plan.

3. Address soaked layers

   The crew assesses whether each layer can dry safely. Unusable soaked pieces are taken out.

4. Track drying results

   Daily moisture records help verify the dry-out. Replacement finishes wait until conditions are suitable.
