How Slab Leak Drying Works in Granville Summit

Water trapped under hardwood may spread sideways. Moisture readings show where equipment should run before the wet area expands.

   Water can travel under tile into an adjacent wall. A moisture map identifies the materials that need continued attention.

   Cabinet toe kicks can block air from reaching a wet base. Opening an affected section may expose it for drying.
