How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Paulina

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

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   A radiator leak can leave a shallow pool across a large floor. The extraction team removes liquid water so drying equipment faces a smaller load.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

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

3. Open only materials that hold water

   Baseboard trim can block evaporation along a leaking heating run. The crew removes limited sections when readings call for it.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   A damp ceiling may look normal before its framing dries. Final meter checks help prevent closing a wet cavity.
