Frequently Asked Questions About Slab Water Extraction
How do pros handle water under a concrete slab?
The surface water is extracted, flooring is lifted where needed and the slab is dried, while the leak is noted for a plumber.
How is slab foundation water damage assessed?
Readings are taken across the slab, wall bases and flooring, and the source of the water is traced inside and out.
Can a slab be dried without removing the floor covering?
Sometimes, if readings show little trapped water. Flooring that holds water against the slab is lifted.
What is the difference between water extraction and drying?
Extraction removes standing water. Drying removes moisture that soaked into the concrete, flooring and walls.
Why is commercial slab water extraction more complex?
Commercial slabs are larger and often have coatings, tiles or equipment, so extraction and drying take more planning.
