How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Swan

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

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   A baseboard heater leak can track along trim. The restoration team removes wet material or water where needed to expose the affected edge.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

   A dry-looking floor can hold moisture beneath its finish. The crew compares readings across affected and unaffected areas.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   Carpet padding that cannot dry in place is lifted. Air movement can then reach the remaining floor layers.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   Air movers and dehumidifiers dry remaining materials. The technician records daily readings rather than stopping when the surface feels dry.
