How Boiler and Radiator Leak Flood Cleanup Works in Callaway

1. Remove standing water

   Extraction tools collect pooled water from carpet and hard surfaces. Edges and low points can hold residual water.

2. Map moisture

   A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.

3. Remove soaked material

   Carpet pad that cannot be dried safely may need to come out. Removal gives remaining wet layers a path to dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.

Gray polybutylene was installed in many homes during these decades and has a known failure history. The crew dries any resulting loss. That history does not replace an inspection of the actual pipe.
