How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Johnston City

3. Open only materials that hold water

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

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   A basement loss may require humidity control along with directed airflow. The Johnston City crew adjusts equipment to measured progress.
