How Slab Leak Under Tile Cleanup Works in Noxon

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

   The crew checks concrete, floor edges and wall bottoms. Recorded values provide a starting point for drying.

3. Address soaked layers

   Wet pad and damaged porous materials may need removal. The crew documents what was affected before opening it.

4. Track drying results

   Controlled drying continues until affected materials meet the project goal. The final record documents progress.

• Close the water supply if it can be done safely.
• Avoid walking on loose tile or wet electrical areas.
• Move movable rugs and small items off the damp floor.
• Photograph wet grout, lifted edges and wall stains.
• Do not break tile to hunt for the buried pipe.
