-
Remove the escaped heating water
A radiator leak can leave a shallow pool across a large floor. The extraction team removes liquid water so drying equipment faces a smaller load.
-
Trace moisture through nearby materials
A dry-looking floor can hold moisture beneath its finish. The crew compares readings across affected and unaffected areas.
-
Open only materials that hold water

-
Run equipment and verify drying
Wood subfloor and drywall dry at different rates. The restoration team follows each material toward its own drying goal.
