How Slab Leak Drying Works in New Holland

Fixing the pipe stops new water but leaves damp materials behind. Extraction and repeat readings track the remaining loss.

1. Extract accessible water

   Wet carpet receives targeted extraction where the material can be saved. The technician checks the pad separately because it can retain water.

2. Map the wet footprint

   Floor edges, wall bases, and cabinet materials receive readings. These checks show whether the water crossed a room boundary.

3. Open water holding materials

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

4. Dry and verify

   Drying equipment runs as needed after the pipe source is controlled. The final record notes the condition reached.
