What Baseboard Heater Pipe Leak Cleanup Includes in New Concord
Photos and drying logs explain why cleanup extended beyond the visible stain. The restoration team in New Concord documents baseboard heater pipe leak cleanup damage as work proceeds.
A baseboard heater pipe carries heating water close to the floor and wall. When a joint or pipe leaks, water can wick into baseboards, carpet tack strips and lower drywall, even if the visible puddle stays narrow.
If electrical equipment is wet, keep clear until a qualified professional makes the area safe. Then a New Concord water damage crew can begin extraction and drying.
