How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Sulphur

Air barely moves inside a ceiling cavity, so damp stays put. A small access opening and an air mover pointed inside speed evaporation. That shortens the time wet material spends in the risk window.

1. Release the trapped water

   If a ceiling is already failing, the crew takes the sagging section down in pieces. That removes the weight from overhead and gives the water a way out.

2. Map the moisture

   Humidity and temperature in the room get logged next to the material readings. Both affect how fast the ceiling can dry.

3. Open the wet layers

   Photos are taken before and after each opening. They document what was found behind the paint.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings are taken at the same spots as the first ones. The job ends when every material matches dry reference.
