How Slab Leak Drying Works in New Castle

1. Extract accessible water

   Standing water at a wall edge is removed first. The team then follows its path beneath nearby flooring.

2. Map the wet footprint

   Water can travel under tile into an adjacent wall. A moisture map identifies the materials that need continued attention.

   A saturated wall base may retain water after extraction. The crew removes material when drying in place is not practical.
