How Slab Leak Drying Works in East Palestine

-
Extract accessible water
Standing water at a wall edge is removed first. The team then follows its path beneath nearby flooring.
-
Map the wet footprint
A warm spot can suggest a supply line issue, but the plumber determines the source. The drying technician measures the damage it caused.
-
Open water holding materials
A saturated wall base may retain water after extraction. The crew removes material when drying in place is not practical.

Dry and verify
The crew monitors the floor and wall bases until readings support ending the dry out. Equipment run time depends on the wet materials.
