How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Westport

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   The Westport 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

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.

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