Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Abilene, TX
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 do yard hydrants fail?
At the valve, which is at the bottom rather than at the handle. The unit shuts off below the frost line and drains what is left in the standpipe into the ground, which is how it avoids freezing. When the seal at that valve goes, it leaks continuously at mains pressure into the ground it was designed to drain into.
Would anybody see it?
Not for a long time here. The discharge is underground, the soil is dry and takes it readily, and the hydrant itself looks perfectly normal. The usual first sign is the water bill, or the pressure in the house dropping slightly, or a patch of ground that stays green in August.
What does replacing a hydrant take?
Digging to the base of the hydrant, which is several feet down. The unit is usually replaced rather than repaired at that point, since the excavation is the expensive part and the rest of the assembly is the same age. It is worth checking the buried run while the ground is open.
