Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Pahrump, NV
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
Where is the storm water supposed to go?
Nowhere in particular, which is the honest answer. There is no municipal storm system in the valley, so water that falls on a property either soaks in, evaporates, or runs onto the next property. Nothing was built to collect it.
Does that make drainage work pointless?
No, but it changes the target. Without an outlet to connect to, the aim is retention and infiltration on the lot itself: somewhere for water to sit safely away from the building until it soaks away, rather than a pipe to somewhere else.
What about water arriving from uphill?
That is the harder half, and it is worth dealing with before anything else. A berm or a cut-off across the uphill boundary keeps a neighbor's runoff out, and on ground this flat it takes very little to change where a sheet of water goes.
