What Kitchen Slab Leak Cleanup Includes in Radiant
Drying after kitchen slab leak cleanup depends on materials and water volume. A Radiant technician records readings to show whether moisture is falling.
A kitchen has many edges where hidden water can collect: cabinet toe kicks, appliance bays, islands and floor transitions. Moisture from a buried pipe may appear near a dishwasher or sink even when those fixtures are sound. Call Slab Leak Cleanup Team when cabinetry swells or floor seams darken.
A plumber finds and fixes the pipe beneath the slab. The restoration crew in Radiant extracts the water and dries affected floors and walls.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

- Shut off water at a safe valve if the leak is active.
- Do not touch powered appliances sitting in water.
- Move food and portable items from damp lower cabinets.
- Photograph swelling, wet flooring and cabinet stains.
- Avoid pulling fixed cabinets apart before the area is assessed.

Water may move along the slab and under floor transitions. The crew checks adjacent areas.
