How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Dexter
Wet subfloor beneath a dry surface creates a risk: mold may begin growing after roughly one to two days. The technician measures concealed materials.
-
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.

Trace moisture through nearby materials
A dry-looking floor can hold moisture beneath its finish. The crew compares readings across affected and unaffected areas.
-
Open only materials that hold water
The Dexter crew documents each material removed during the dry-out. Finish work is scoped after moisture goals are reached.
-
Run equipment and verify drying
A basement loss may require humidity control along with directed airflow. The Dexter crew adjusts equipment to measured progress.
