How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Union

Humid weather slows drying, and slow drying favors growth. Dehumidifiers pull water out of the air so the ceiling can release its own. A Union crew sizes the equipment to the room instead of using a rule of thumb.

1. Release the trapped water

   Buckets and plastic go down before anything is opened. Furniture and floors stay covered so the water has nowhere to soak in.

2. Map the moisture

   The measurements go onto a simple room sketch. Return visits use the same spots, so progress is easy to see.

3. 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.

4. 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.
