How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Wentzville

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   The Wentzville 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

   A dry-looking floor can hold moisture beneath its finish. The crew compares readings across affected and unaffected areas.

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
