How Kitchen Slab Leak Water Drying Works in Ivanhoe

1. Extract accessible water

   The crew removes pooled water in Ivanhoe before it can reach more floor area. Extraction tools pull moisture from surfaces that permit access.

2. Map the wet footprint

   Water can travel under tile into an adjacent wall. A moisture map identifies the materials that need continued attention.

3. Open water holding materials

   A saturated wall base may retain water after extraction. The crew removes material when drying in place is not practical.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers help affected materials release moisture. Repeat meter readings show progress in Ivanhoe.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Water trapped under hardwood may spread sideways. Moisture readings show where equipment should run before the wet area expands.

• Shut off the water supply from a safe dry position if the leak continues.
• Keep wet kitchen appliances off until an appropriate trade checks them.
• Move loose items from dry cabinet shelves without touching damaged wiring.
• Photograph swollen toe kicks, floor seams and the path of spreading water.
• Avoid pulling out a heavy dishwasher or cutting cabinet bases yourself.
