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

   Water from steam piping may travel behind a heater cover. The technician checks concealed edges after the heating system is safe.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   Baseboard trim can block evaporation along a leaking heating run. The crew removes limited sections when readings call for it.

4. Run equipment and verify drying

   The Thompson Falls technician keeps a drying record for the homeowner. Rebuild work follows after affected materials reach their goals.
