How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Heilwood

Wet porous material can support mold growth within 24 to 48 hours. The crew identifies damp areas that deserve prompt drying.

4. Track drying results

   Controlled drying continues until affected materials meet the project goal. The final record documents progress.
