How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Pedro Bay

Soaked insulation is among the slowest materials to dry. Some of it is bagged out so the framing can dry in the open. The call depends on the water category and on how long it sat wet.

1. Release the trapped water

   The crew checks the room for electrical hazards first, then looks for the lowest point of any bulge. A small, controlled opening lets the water run into a bucket instead of down onto the floor.

2. Map the moisture

   A technician scans the ceiling with a thermal camera, then checks suspect spots with a meter. Cold patches that read wet show where the water really went.

3. 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.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings are taken at the same spots as the first ones. The job ends when every material matches dry reference.
