How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Kress

Water from an upper radiator can reach the room below. Mold can begin to grow on wet ceiling materials in 24 to 48 hours, making early assessment important.

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   The Kress 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 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

   Saturated insulation above a ceiling may need removal so framing can dry. The crew records what was opened and why.

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.
