How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Roy

Cleanup does not wait for a test to prove a problem. The first moves are always the same: remove standing water, pull what cannot dry and run dehumidifiers. Waiting for proof only hands moisture more time.

1. Release the trapped water

   The crew checks the room for electrical hazards first, then looks for the lowest point of any bulge. A small, controlled opening lets the water run into a bucket instead of down onto the floor.

2. 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.

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

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