Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Moreno Valley, CA
The leak is traced above the stain and corrected, wet insulation comes out, the cavity is dried to a reading, and only then is the ceiling repaired. The leak is traced uphill from the stain and corrected before anything else. Soaked insulation comes out of the cavity, the framing and the back of the ceiling are dried and read to the dry standard, and only then is the ceiling repaired and painted, so the stain does not return through new paint.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a slab loss take to dry here in the dry season?
Often under a week, which is quick by most standards. Warm dry outside air does a great deal of the work once the pad and any trapped covering are gone, so equipment is supplementing the climate rather than fighting it. The slow part is not the drying but finding how far the pad carried the water in the first place.
Does the carpet come back after clean water?
The carpet often can be saved; the pad almost never is. Pad is open cell foam that holds many times its weight and cannot be dried in place under a carpet, so it is pulled, the concrete is dried, and the carpet is relaid over new pad. Where the carpet was already worn it is usually not worth the labor.
Why is the base of the drywall being cut when the carpet was the wet part?
Because paper-faced board wicks upward from the floor faster than it dries downward. Water that spread under the pad sat against the bottom edge of every wall it reached, and the bottom two inches are wet even where the surface reads fine. A narrow cut lets the cavity be read and dried rather than guessed at.
