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.

• Check terms for slow seepage.
• Ask how the deductible applies.
• Keep extraction and drying invoices.

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