How Slab Leak Under Hardwood Cleanup Works in Greenville

1. Remove accessible water

   Standing liquid is lifted from exposed areas. The technician also looks for water at wall and cabinet bases.

2. Measure hidden dampness

3. Address soaked layers

   Air movement and dehumidification address retained damp materials. Repeated readings show whether moisture is falling.

• Turn off the water at a safe, accessible valve if the leak is active.
• Move rugs and light furnishings away from wet boards.
• Keep electrical cords and powered devices away from damp flooring.
• Photograph cupped boards and water marks before cleanup begins.
• Leave attached planks in place until the crew checks hidden moisture.
