How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Franklin

Warmth from a hot pipe does not make a slab leak harmless. Water can still reach wood, drywall and adhesive beneath flooring.

1. Remove accessible water

   The crew extracts pooled water before it continues soaking the floor assembly. Wet edges are checked beyond the obvious puddle.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   The crew checks concrete, floor edges and wall bottoms. Recorded values provide a starting point for drying.

3. Address soaked layers

   A swollen board or saturated wall base may not be retained. Material condition directs removal decisions.

4. Track drying results

   Controlled drying continues until affected materials meet the project goal. The final record documents progress.
