How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in West Point

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

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

3. Open only materials that hold water

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

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   The West Point technician keeps a drying record for the homeowner. Rebuild work follows after affected materials reach their goals.
