Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Rialto, 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
What is an alluvial fan?
The spread of rock, gravel and sand that a mountain canyon dumps out where it reaches the flat. This whole area is built on one. The material was laid down by floods over thousands of years, so it is coarse, loose and cut through with old buried channels.
Why does water travel so fast underground here?
Because there is so much space between the stones. Water entering coarse material does not creep through it the way it does through clay, it runs. So a broken line can deliver a long way from where it broke, and it arrives quickly.
What does that do to a driveway or a slab edge?
It takes the ground out from under it. Loose sand and gravel wash along with a concentrated flow, so paving that was fully supported ends up bridging a void. The first sign is often a crack in a drive rather than anything inside the house.
