How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Medora

Remove the escaped heating water
An upstairs leak may have little surface water after draining below. The crew still checks the ceiling cavity and extracts any accessible collected water.
-
Trace moisture through nearby materials
Finished basement walls may wick water upward from the floor. Measurements along the wall base reveal the affected height.

Open only materials that hold water

Run equipment and verify drying
Air movers and dehumidifiers dry remaining materials. The technician records daily readings rather than stopping when the surface feels dry.
