How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Cottage Grove

Warm rooms speed up growth on wet materials. In Cottage Grove, a closed-up room with a wet ceiling gets air movers and a dehumidifier from the first visit.

1. Drain the water above

   The crew finds the low point where water has pooled and starts the drain-down there. A wet-vac handles what the containers cannot hold.

2. Extract the floor and the cavity

   The crew vacuums water from the open joist bays and ceiling edges, so nothing stays pooled above the lower layer of drywall.

3. Open and remove what is soaked

   Soaked insulation goes into bags, and drywall that has gone soft comes down in sections. The crew cuts back to dry, solid edges.

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.

• Note any earlier leaks or repairs in the same spot

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
