How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Lamont

The Lamont technician relies on readings rather than touch. Mold can start growing after 24 to 48 hours where heating water remains in porous material.

1. 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.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

   Finished basement walls may wick water upward from the floor. Measurements along the wall base reveal the affected height.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   Porous material affected by heavily contaminated water is handled differently from a clean surface spill. The restoration team assesses category first.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   A basement loss may require humidity control along with directed airflow. The Lamont crew adjusts equipment to measured progress.
