Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Conroe, 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 much water does a pine actually take?
Hundreds of gallons a day for a mature one in a Texas summer, drawn from a root area much wider than the canopy. Where that area reaches under a slab on clay, it dries the soil there far more than the weather alone would.
Why does the floor move in a dry summer rather than after rain?
Because the tree is at its most active then. The clay under the slab shrinks as the tree draws it down, so the foundation loses support on the tree side, and a floor that seemed sound all winter starts cracking in August.
Does the tree have to come out?
Not necessarily, and it is worth resisting the reflex. A root barrier between the tree and the building, and watering the foundation through the dry months to hold the moisture steady, both address it. Taking a large tree out can move the ground the other way.
