How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Tomales

A leaking baseboard pipe can dampen wallboard edges. If they stay wet, mold may start growing after one or two days. Moisture mapping identifies drying needs.

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   The Tomales crew extracts standing water before placing dryers. A boiler room floor may need water removed from behind stored items.

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

4. 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.
