How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Thomas

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

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   The Thomas crew extracts standing water before placing dryers. A boiler room floor may need water removed from behind stored items.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

   The technician checks subfloor and underlayment where radiator water crossed a seam. Meter readings define the wet perimeter.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   Porous material affected by heavily contaminated water is handled differently from a clean surface spill. The restoration team assesses category first.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   Wood subfloor and drywall dry at different rates. The restoration team follows each material toward its own drying goal.
