How Slab Leak Drying Works in Pendleton

Water at a wall base can wick upward into drywall. The crew checks that height and opens material when drying requires access.

1. Extract accessible water

   The crew removes pooled water in Pendleton before it can reach more floor area. Extraction tools pull moisture from surfaces that permit access.

2. Map the wet footprint

   A warm spot can suggest a supply line issue, but the plumber determines the source. The drying technician measures the damage it caused.

3. Open water holding materials

   Baseboard or a small section of wet finish may need opening for airflow. The technician explains the drying reason for that access.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers help affected materials release moisture. Repeat meter readings show progress in Pendleton.
