How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Decatur

Fresh paint over a stain can trap moisture and hide a growing problem. The crew dries the structure first and leaves the cosmetic work for later.

1. Drain the water above

   Controlled release keeps the water off your carpet. The technician works from the edge of the bulge toward the center while everyone stays clear.

2. Extract the floor and the cavity

   Standing water on a finished floor can seep into the seams. The crew vacuums those edges first, then works toward the middle of the room.

3. Open and remove what is soaked

   In Decatur, older plaster ceilings call for a slower approach, since plaster is heavy and can fall in large pieces. The crew plans its cuts and supports before it opens one.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers push dry air through the open bays, and LGR dehumidifiers pull moisture out of the air. The crew places them from the moisture map.

The repair of a pipe or roof is often outside the claim, even when the damage it caused is inside. A plumber or roofer bills that work separately. The claim usually deals with the water damage that followed.

• Write down the date and time you first saw the water
• Ask what the policy says about deductibles and water damage
