How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Mc Dowell
Fresh paint over a stain can trap moisture and hide a growing problem. The crew dries the structure first and leaves the cosmetic work for later.
-
Drain the water above
In Mc Dowell, the first job is often the same: take the weight off the ceiling and get the water into containers. The crew keeps people out from under the sag while it works.
-
Extract the floor and the cavity
The crew vacuums water from the open joist bays and ceiling edges, so nothing stays pooled above the lower layer of drywall.
-
Open and remove what is soaked
Soaked insulation goes into bags, and drywall that has gone soft comes down in sections. The crew cuts back to dry, solid edges.
-
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.
