The buried pipe may need access through the floor or another plumbing approach. After that work, the drying team measures which materials still hold water.

How Slab Leak Water Extraction and Drying Works in Hatch
-
Extract accessible water
Wet carpet receives targeted extraction where the material can be saved. The technician checks the pad separately because it can retain water.
-
Map the wet footprint
Water can travel under tile into an adjacent wall. A moisture map identifies the materials that need continued attention.
-
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.
-
Dry and verify
Moisture levels are compared with suitable unaffected areas. The team then removes equipment when the assembly is documented dry.

- Call a plumber for the pipe beneath the slab.
- Stay clear of wet outlets, cords and powered appliances.
- Photograph visible water and note which rooms are changing.
- Avoid drilling, cutting concrete or lifting attached flooring yourself.
