1. Remove the escaped heating water

   A baseboard heater leak can track along trim. The restoration team removes wet material or water where needed to expose the affected edge.

2. Trace moisture through nearby materials

   A ceiling mark below the leak may conceal damp insulation. The Silt crew tests beyond the stain before selecting access points.

3. Open only materials that hold water

   Saturated insulation above a ceiling may need removal so framing can dry. The crew records what was opened and why.

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