Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Edmond, OK
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
What is the risk with a tap over the range?
The supply line behind the wall rather than the tap itself. Getting water to that position means running a line up inside the wall of a kitchen, with a connection at the fitting. Everything below it is cabinetry, appliances and flooring, and there is no drain to catch anything.
How would a slow leak show?
As damage below and beside the range rather than at the tap. Water running inside the wall reaches the bottom plate and travels along the cabinet run, so the sign is a swollen cabinet base or lifting flooring several feet away. The fitting above looks perfectly dry.
Is there anything worth doing when one is fitted?
Insisting on a shutoff that can be reached, and knowing where it is. Many of these are installed with no local isolation at all, which means stopping a failure requires shutting the house down. It is a small thing to specify at the time and impossible to add easily afterward.
