How Radiator Leak Water Damage Works in Hickman

1. Remove the escaped heating water

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

3. Open only materials that hold water

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