How Slab Leak Drying Works in West Groton

A surface can look dry while its underside remains wet. The crew measures hidden layers because prolonged moisture raises the risk of growth.

2. Map the wet footprint

   Initial readings establish the starting condition. Later measurements show whether the drying plan is working.

   The team keeps a record of opened areas and damaged material. Finished repair work is quoted after drying.
