How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Old Lyme

A household fan may leave water behind drywall. Damp building layers can support mold growth starting by the second day after the leak.

1. Remove the escaped heating water

   The Old Lyme 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 Old Lyme crew tests beyond the stain before selecting access points.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   Carpet padding that cannot dry in place is lifted. Air movement can then reach the remaining floor layers.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   A basement loss may require humidity control along with directed airflow. The Old Lyme crew adjusts equipment to measured progress.
