How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Gravity

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

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

   Water from steam piping may travel behind a heater cover. The technician checks concealed edges after the heating system is safe.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   A wet wall plate behind finished basement drywall may need access. The technician measures the cavity before cutting.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

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