How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Elco

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   Basement water can collect at wall bases. Crews in Elco pull it out and check adjacent rooms for spread.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

   Finished basement walls may wick water upward from the floor. Measurements along the wall base reveal the affected height.

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.
