Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Valdosta, GA
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 flooring lift around the edges of the room?
Because the joint between the slab and the block perimeter is where moisture comes through. It is a junction of two materials poured at different times, so it is never tight, and anything bonded across it releases there first. The band around the room is the joint showing itself, not the shape of the spill.
Does the slab edge dry at the same rate as the rest?
No, it lags, and it is what holds a job open. The middle of a pour has only the ground beneath it; the edge has the ground, the block and the outside face as well, and the block cores hold water below the floor. Readings are taken at the perimeter because that is the last place to come down.
When can a new floor be bonded down over this slab?
Once the perimeter readings have stopped moving, which is later than the middle of the room suggests. A covering bonded over a slab edge that is still giving up moisture will release again within months, so the edges are read across several checks on different days and the floor goes down only when those stay flat.
