How Boiler Leak Basement Water Damage Works in Inez

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   The Inez 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

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

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

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   The crew checks room air and material readings through the dry-out. Equipment stays until verified conditions support removal.

• Keep clear of hot water and any wet heating controls.
• Leave the basement if water surrounds outlets or powered equipment.
• Use a safely accessible shutoff only if its location and function are clear.
• Call a heating technician to stop the boiler leak.
