Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Bryan, 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
Why is the wall wet when the floor is dry?
Because the connections are inside the wall. The supply and drain sit in a box recessed into the framing, so a weeping hose or fitting releases into that cavity rather than onto the floor, and the shallow tray around it holds what arrives. The room gives no sign until the board fails.
How long do these usually run?
Weeks, and sometimes longer. The volume is small, there is nothing to see with the machine pushed back against the wall, and nothing changes about how anything works. The extent is set by how long it went on rather than by how fast it was leaking.
What is checked when the wall is opened?
The box, the fittings in it and the framing behind and below, because the water has been running down inside the cavity to the plate. The hoses are replaced as part of the repair whatever their apparent condition, since they are the same age and have done the same work.
