How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in New Freedom

Water under tile may not appear until it reaches a wall edge. The crew checks adjoining spaces before deciding the drying footprint.

1. Remove accessible water

   The crew extracts pooled water before it continues soaking the floor assembly. Wet edges are checked beyond the obvious puddle.

2. Measure hidden dampness

   The crew checks concrete, floor edges and wall bottoms. Recorded values provide a starting point for drying.

3. Address soaked layers

   A swollen board or saturated wall base may not be retained. Material condition directs removal decisions.

4. Track drying results

   The crew monitors the wet area during drying. Final measurements support the handoff to finishing trades.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

A plumber identifies the pipe; a New Freedom crew dries the water.

Freezing weather does not change the need for source control. Drying begins after accessible water is removed. With many owner occupied homes in New Freedom, property owners can keep plumber and drying records together for their insurer.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Do not assume the pipe fix and floor drying have identical coverage. The trades perform different work and keep different records. Discuss with the insurer how to submit both sets of documents.

• List each affected room.
• Keep initial moisture readings.
• Record the date and time water was discovered.

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