How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Blakely Island
Spores are already floating in most homes. What they lack is water, and a wet ceiling supplies plenty. The paper face on drywall is an easy surface for them to settle on.
-
Release the trapped water
If a ceiling is already failing, the crew takes the sagging section down in pieces. That removes the weight from overhead and gives the water a way out.
-
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
Anything older that could need testing before it is disturbed is raised with the homeowner first. The crew does not cut blind.
-
Dry and verify
A technician returns each day to repeat the readings at the sketched spots. A reading that stops falling means water is still trapped somewhere.
