The valve may stop new flow, but it cannot remove water already inside flooring. A cleanup crew handles extraction and measured drying.

How Slab Leak Under Hardwood Cleanup Works in Holualoa

3. Address soaked layers

   A swollen board or saturated wall base may not be retained. Material condition directs removal decisions.

• Turn off the water at a safe, accessible valve if the leak is active.
• Move rugs and light furnishings away from wet boards.
• Keep electrical cords and powered devices away from damp flooring.
• Photograph cupped boards and water marks before cleanup begins.
