How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Avery

Opening a ceiling lets moisture escape and shows the crew what is happening above. It can feel drastic, but it is often the quickest way to keep dampness from lingering.

1. Drain the water above

   The technician cuts power to the area and sets containers or a pump hose under the lowest point of the bulge. A small controlled opening lets the water run out instead of dropping in a rush.

2. Extract the floor and the cavity

   The extraction tech also checks baseboards, wall bottoms and lower cabinets for water that wicked down from the ceiling.

3. Open and remove what is soaked

   Texture, paint and paper facing can look fine while the gypsum behind them is saturated. The meter tells the crew which pieces have to go.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers push dry air through the open bays, and LGR dehumidifiers pull moisture out of the air. The crew places them from the moisture map.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

A storm that tears shingles off a roof may be covered, while a roof that wore out over many seasons often is not. The cause of the leak matters as much as the stain. Ask the insurer how the policy treats each case.

• Keep the plumber's or roofer's note about what caused the leak
• Keep the crew's written scope with the policy papers
• Write down the date and time you first saw the water

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
