How Slab Leak Drying Works in Roaring Gap
Cabinet bases and drywall absorb water from a slab leak. Prompt drying helps keep those porous materials from staying saturated.

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 dry looking surface is not the endpoint. The technician checks the hidden layers that were wet at the start.
