Job completed for Luecke- slab leak Baton Rouge

A residential property in Baton Rouge, LA experienced water damage in the kitchen due to a slab leak beneath the flooring. The issue was identified through a leak detection lead, allowing for a quick response before the damage could worsen. Slab leaks can be especially problematic, as water spreads underneath surfaces and often goes unnoticed until visible damage appears.

Our team began the mitigation process by removing the affected kitchen flooring to expose the impacted area. Drying equipment, including air movers, was then placed to begin extracting moisture from the surface and surrounding materials. After the initial drying period, the strategy was adjusted to better target moisture trapped beneath the flooring system. Air movers were removed after the first day and replaced with specialized drying hoses directed underneath the raised floors into the cavity below. This allowed for more precise drying of hidden moisture. Once the area was fully dried, all affected surfaces were cleaned and sanitized to restore a safe and healthy environment. This project highlights the importance of proper detection, targeted drying methods, and thorough cleanup when addressing slab leak water damage.
