Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Winter Park, FL
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.
No obligation: the assessment comes before any scope
Often needed alongside
- Structural Drying & Dehumidification
Sealed air movers and dehumidifiers bring framing, subfloor and drywall back to a measured dry standard, with daily readings logged from inside the material.
- Mold Inspection & Testing
An independent assessor confirms whether the assembly that got wet is actually dry, whether growth started while it was not, and how far it reaches.
Frequently asked questions
What is behind the window frame in these houses?
The original frame, still in place. When these windows were changed the new units were fitted inside the existing openings rather than the old frames being removed, so there is a second frame buried in the wall around each one, with a gap between the two that nothing can reach.
Why is an old frame behind a new window a problem?
Because it is timber in a closed space. Water getting past the new unit collects between the two frames, where there is no air movement and no way to read it from the room, and in a climate with no dry season it stays there. A window that reads dry can have a wet frame behind it.
Does the replacement window have to come out?
Where the readings say the old frame is wet, usually yes, and that is a bigger job than it looks. Getting at the original means removing the unit that was fitted over it, so the scope goes from a wall repair to a window replacement. It is established with a meter before anything is committed to.
