How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Leroy
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.
-
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.
-
Map the moisture
The measurements go onto a simple room sketch. Return visits use the same spots, so progress is easy to see.
-
Open the wet layers
Photos are taken before and after each opening. They document what was found behind the paint.

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