How Slab Leak Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Tecumseh

1. Remove standing water

   Portable units reach upper rooms where truck mounted equipment cannot be placed close to the loss.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   Wall bases get checked after extraction because drywall can wick water above the floor mark.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Insulation holding water can keep a wall cavity damp even after the surface feels dry.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew compares final readings with the unaffected reference before equipment removal.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• Have a plumber isolate the leaking pipe.
• Avoid wet electrical outlets near the floor.
• Move valuables away if safe.
• Photograph the source and damaged belongings.
