1. Extract accessible water

   Water beneath cabinets may emerge at the toe kick. The crew extracts the accessible area and checks farther behind the finish.

2. Map the wet footprint

   Moisture meters help trace slab leak water beyond the visible stain. The technician records affected rooms and nearby dry comparison areas.

The drying plan depends on the water that reached flooring, not the plumbing component alone.

Mixed seasonal conditions affect buildings differently. The drying equipment is chosen from the actual loss. A high owner occupancy share does not determine coverage. Sudden water damage terms vary among policies.
