What Kitchen Slab Leak Water Drying Includes in Arcadia
Floor covering can disguise moisture beneath it. A technician measures the wet footprint before selecting extraction and drying equipment.
A kitchen floor may show a narrow wet strip while water sits beneath fixed cabinets. Toe kicks conceal the lower panels, and a dishwasher recess can collect water away from the visible patch. A local extraction crew checks those pockets before setting a drying plan.
If water has reached a wall base, pipe work alone leaves the wall damp. Extraction and structural drying address that separate loss.
