How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Ponder
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.
-
Release the trapped water
If a ceiling is already failing, the crew takes the sagging section down in pieces. That removes the weight from overhead and gives the water a way out.
-
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.
-
Open the wet layers
Cuts are made in straight lines, a little beyond the wet edge. Clean edges make the later patch easier for the drywall finisher.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers push air across the open framing and dehumidifiers pull water out of the room. Both stay on until the readings drop.
