How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Maxwell

After a radiator leak, mold can start growing on wet materials in a 24 to 48 hour window. The Maxwell crew extracts water and checks hidden floor layers.

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

   A dry-looking floor can hold moisture beneath its finish. The crew compares readings across affected and unaffected areas.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   The Maxwell crew documents each material removed during the dry-out. Finish work is scoped after moisture goals are reached.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   A damp ceiling may look normal before its framing dries. Final meter checks help prevent closing a wet cavity.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
