How Kitchen Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Declo

1. Remove accessible water

   The crew extracts pooled water before it continues soaking the floor assembly. Wet edges are checked beyond the obvious puddle.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   A dry looking tile face cannot show the condition below. Readings help locate concealed wet layers.

3. Address soaked layers

   Wet pad and damaged porous materials may need removal. The crew documents what was affected before opening it.

4. Track drying results

   Controlled drying continues until affected materials meet the project goal. The final record documents progress.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Water under tile may not appear until it reaches a wall edge. The crew checks adjoining spaces before deciding the drying footprint.

• Shut off water at a safe valve if the leak is active.
• Do not touch powered appliances sitting in water.
• Move food and portable items from damp lower cabinets.
• Photograph swelling, wet flooring and cabinet stains.
• Avoid pulling fixed cabinets apart before the area is assessed.
