3. Open water holding materials

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

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.

• Ask how the deductible applies.
• Document every affected room.
• Ask about pipe access coverage.

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