How Slab Leak Drying Works in Keene

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

   Water beneath cabinets may emerge at the toe kick. The crew extracts the accessible area and checks farther behind the finish.

2. Map the wet footprint

   The crew examines wet flooring layers rather than assuming a dry surface means dry construction. Readings determine equipment placement.

3. Open water holding materials

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

4. Dry and verify

   The closeout record can include the wet map, removed materials, and final readings. The insurer applies the policy to any claim.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Before rebuild begins, an adjuster may want proof that affected materials reached dry readings. Save the technician’s final report and invoices. Ask the insurer which policy terms apply.

• Record the date water was discovered.
• Record when the source was stopped.
• Separate plumbing from dry out costs.

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
