How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Brashear

After a radiator leak, mold can start growing on wet materials in a 24 to 48 hour window. The Brashear crew extracts water and checks hidden floor layers.

1. 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.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

   Finished basement walls may wick water upward from the floor. Measurements along the wall base reveal the affected height.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   Carpet padding that cannot dry in place is lifted. Air movement can then reach the remaining floor layers.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

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