How Slab Leak Drying Works in Branford
Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Early extraction limits how long carpet pad and wall bases stay damp.
-
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.
-
Map the wet footprint
Water can travel under tile into an adjacent wall. A moisture map identifies the materials that need continued attention.
-
Open water holding materials
A saturated wall base may retain water after extraction. The crew removes material when drying in place is not practical.

Dry and verify
The crew monitors the floor and wall bases until readings support ending the dry out. Equipment run time depends on the wet materials.
