1. Extract accessible water

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

2. Map the wet footprint

   Floor edges, wall bases, and cabinet materials receive readings. These checks show whether the water crossed a room boundary.

3. Open water holding materials

   The team keeps a record of opened areas and damaged material. Finished repair work is quoted after drying.

4. Dry and verify

   Drying equipment runs as needed after the pipe source is controlled. The final record notes the condition reached.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

The insurer decides whether a specific slab leak loss qualifies under the policy. Photograph the first wet area, save the pipe assessment, and keep extraction notes. Do not assume the plumbing fix and drying have the same coverage.

• Check terms for slow seepage.
• Keep extraction and drying invoices.
• Ask how the deductible applies.

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
