Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Pueblo, CO
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
Why does the ground cut rather than soak?
Because it is dry, bare and hard-packed. Sparse vegetation means there is little holding the surface together, and a summer storm delivers more in an hour than the ground can possibly take, so the water runs and carries the soil with it.
How fast does a gully form?
In a single storm, and then it deepens with every one after. Once a channel exists it concentrates the next storm's flow, so a rut that appeared one August is a foot deep the following year and heading for whatever is downhill of it.
What stops one before it reaches the house?
Breaking the flow rather than trying to armor the channel. Check structures across the line, and getting the water to spread out before it gains speed, do more than lining the gully, which usually just moves the cutting further down.
