How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Allakaket

A ceiling can look dry while the board above the paint is still wet. If the insulation holds water, the 24 to 48 hour window keeps running. Meter readings, not looks, show when it is over.

1. Release the trapped water

   Light fixtures and fans in the wet area stay off. The technician works around them and leaves any wiring decision to an electrician.

2. Map the moisture

   A dry reference reading from an untouched ceiling gives the crew a target. Drying aims for that number, not for a feeling.

3. 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.

4. Dry and verify

   The drying log lists the days each machine ran and the readings taken. That log supports the insurance file.
