How Leaking Ceiling Water Damage Works in Keams Canyon

Fans and an open window dry the air in a room, not the water trapped inside a ceiling. Left alone, that moisture can feed growth inside two days, so the crew measures first and dries the cavity.

1. Drain and extract the water

   Plastic sheeting goes down first, then the crew drains the ceiling and lifts water off carpet and hard floors. Furniture and belongings get moved or blocked up so nothing sits in the wet.

2. Map the moisture

   A dry reading from an unaffected room sets the baseline. The crew compares every wet area with it, so the drying goal rests on your own home and not on a guess.

3. Take out what holds water

   Not every wet ceiling has to come down. When the meters allow it, the crew leaves sound drywall in place and dries it by blowing air through small access holes.

4. Dry and verify

   With the cavity open, air movers push moving air across the framing and LGR dehumidifiers pull moisture out of the room. Equipment is sized to the Class 1 to 4 rating of each space.
