How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Whick

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   A baseboard heater leak can track along trim. The restoration team removes wet material or water where needed to expose the affected edge.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

   The technician checks subfloor and underlayment where radiator water crossed a seam. Meter readings define the wet perimeter.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   A wet wall plate behind finished basement drywall may need access. The technician measures the cavity before cutting.

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.
