How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Star Tannery

Boiler water may soak cardboard and basement wall finishes. Mold growth can start in as little as 24 to 48 hours on wet surfaces; extraction reduces ongoing saturation.

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   An upstairs leak may have little surface water after draining below. The crew still checks the ceiling cavity and extracts any accessible collected water.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

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

3. Open only materials that hold water

   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.
