How Kitchen Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Rudolph

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

   A technician compares materials and nearby dry areas. This helps define the actual scope of the loss.

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.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Prompt extraction reduces the time a floor assembly stays saturated.

• Shut off water at a safe valve if the leak is active.
• Do not touch powered appliances sitting in water.
• Move food and portable items from damp lower cabinets.
• Photograph swelling, wet flooring and cabinet stains.
• Avoid pulling fixed cabinets apart before the area is assessed.
