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.

Trace moisture through nearby materials
Water from steam piping may travel behind a heater cover. The technician checks concealed edges after the heating system is safe.
-
Open only materials that hold water
Baseboard trim can block evaporation along a leaking heating run. The crew removes limited sections when readings call for it.

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.
