How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Ketchum
Air barely moves inside a ceiling cavity, so damp stays put. A small access opening and an air mover pointed inside speed evaporation. That shortens the time wet material spends in the risk window.
-
Release the trapped water
A bulge can hold gallons. The technician cuts a relief hole well away from wiring and catches the flow in a container or a hose to a drain.
-
Map the moisture
The crew looks at what sits above the ceiling too. An attic, a floor with a subfloor or a roof deck can each hold water that the room below never shows.
-
Open the wet layers
Board that is sagging, stained through or soaked with dirty water usually comes out. Sound board that read wet may stay and dry in place.
-
Dry and verify
Dense materials like framing dry slower than thin board. The crew moves equipment around so each zone gets air until it reaches its target.
