How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Hiltons

   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

   The Hiltons crew documents each material removed during the dry-out. Finish work is scoped after moisture goals are reached.
