How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Newcastle
Spores are already floating in most homes. What they lack is water, and a wet ceiling supplies plenty. The paper face on drywall is an easy surface for them to settle on.
-
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.
-
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
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.
-
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.
