How Slab Leak Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Clinton

1. Remove standing water

2. Find absorbed moisture

   A thermal camera can point toward cooler damp areas, which technicians confirm with direct readings.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Dirty water on porous materials changes the work: contaminated pieces usually come out.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew compares final readings with the unaffected reference before equipment removal.
