How Kitchen Slab Leak Water Drying Works in Seguin

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

   Initial readings establish the starting condition. Later measurements show whether the drying plan is working.

3. Open water holding materials

   Baseboard or a small section of wet finish may need opening for airflow. The technician explains the drying reason for that access.

4. Dry and verify

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

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Water at a wall base can wick upward into drywall. The crew checks that height and opens material when drying requires access.

• Shut off the water supply from a safe dry position if the leak continues.
• Keep wet kitchen appliances off until an appropriate trade checks them.
• Move loose items from dry cabinet shelves without touching damaged wiring.
• Photograph swollen toe kicks, floor seams and the path of spreading water.
• Avoid pulling out a heavy dishwasher or cutting cabinet bases yourself.
