Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Sharon, MS
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 much water can come under a door?
A surprising amount in a driven storm. Wind pushes water across a porch or a slab and up against the door, and a quarter-inch gap along a three-foot door is a considerable opening at exactly the height that water is running. It comes in as a sheet rather than a drip.
What does the water under a door damage?
The flooring just inside and the bottom of the door itself. Engineered flooring swells at the joints nearest the door, the sill and the framing beneath it take water repeatedly, and the door's own bottom rail decays. All of it accumulates over seasons rather than arriving at once.
Is a sweep enough on its own?
Usually, if the sill is sound and the ground outside falls away. A sweep costs very little and takes minutes to fit. Where water is already standing against the door because of the grade or a settled slab outside, that has to be dealt with as well, or the sweep is holding back a pond.
