How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Little River Academy
Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet drywall and insulation. A ceiling that stays damp over a weekend gives it a head start. Fast extraction and drying take away the moisture it needs.
-
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
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.
-
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.
-
Dry and verify
Dense materials like framing dry slower than thin board. The crew moves equipment around so each zone gets air until it reaches its target.
