-
Remove the escaped heating water

-
Trace moisture through nearby materials
Moisture can follow pipe penetrations between rooms. The restoration team maps both sides of those openings.
-
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
