1. Remove the escaped heating water

   Basement water can collect at wall bases. Crews in Elko pull it out and check adjacent rooms for spread.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

   A ceiling mark below the leak may conceal damp insulation. The Elko crew tests beyond the stain before selecting access points.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   Saturated insulation above a ceiling may need removal so framing can dry. The crew records what was opened and why.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

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