• Water Through Ceiling Leak Cleanup

  Extraction equipment lifts standing water from floors and carpet pad while contents are moved out of the wet zone.

• Bathroom Above Ceiling Leak Cleanup

  Tub, shower and toilet leaks soak two floors at once, and the crew extracts, sanitizes and dries both.

• Ceiling Fan Leak Cleanup

  Thermal imaging shows how far water spread around the fan box, and wet board and insulation there are opened.

• After-Rain Ceiling Leak Cleanup

  A roofer closes the opening while the crew works the inside, and the two jobs go on side by side.

• Spreading Ceiling Stain Leak Cleanup

  Porous drywall and insulation wick water sideways, so the wet area usually reaches well past the brown edge.

How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Amistad

Air barely moves inside a ceiling cavity, so damp stays put. A small access opening and an air mover pointed inside speed evaporation. That shortens the time wet material spends in the risk window.

1. Release the trapped water

   A bulge can hold gallons. The technician cuts a relief hole well away from wiring and catches the flow in a container or a hose to a drain.

2. Map the moisture

   The crew looks at what sits above the ceiling too. An attic, a floor with a subfloor or a roof deck can each hold water that the room below never shows.

3. 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.

4. Dry and verify

   A technician returns each day to repeat the readings at the sketched spots. A reading that stops falling means water is still trapped somewhere.
