How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Shaktoolik

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

1. Remove accessible water

   After the pipe is stopped, the crew clears reachable water. Material condition determines what can remain.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   A technician compares materials and nearby dry areas. This helps define the actual scope of the loss.

3. Address soaked layers

   Only materials that can be dried are left in place. The crew records any removal for the property owner.

4. Track drying results

   Equipment placement changes if a damp area resists progress. The technician checks readings instead of appearance alone.
