When a pipe under or in the slab leaks, water comes up through cracks and flooring. The surface water is extracted and the leak location is noted for a plumber.
Basement Concrete Water Extraction
Seepage at the joint between the basement wall and slab is noted, since it often returns with heavy rain.
Flooded Garage Slab Drying
Garage slabs are squeegeed and extracted, then dried with air movers and dehumidifiers so the walls and stored items around them stay dry.
Emergency Slab Flood Cleanup
Emergency slab cleanup starts with stopping the source, moving belongings and removing water before it soaks into flooring and walls.

How Concrete Slab Water Extraction Works in Genoa
Step 1: Source Containment and Extraction
The water is shut off and extracted from floors, garages and any rooms it reached.
Step 2: Slab Leak Detection
Signs of a leak under the slab are recorded, and the likely location is noted for a plumber.
Step 3: Structural Drying
The slab, sill plates and the bottom of walls are dried with directed airflow and dehumidifiers.
Step 4: Final Clearance Readings
Slab readings are compared to dry areas before equipment is removed and flooring goes back.
