How Slab Leak Cleanup Works in Protem
A wet room needs more than open windows. The drying technician considers humidity, air movement and the materials behind finishes.

The technician begins at visible water and extends assessment into adjacent rooms. Extraction addresses accessible liquid.

Measure hidden dampness
Cabinet bases and adjoining closets may have absorbed water. Mapping checks those low areas.

Address soaked layers
If water is trapped beneath a finish, selective access may help drying. The technician explains the reason for the work.
