Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Sandy, UT
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 a debris flow?
Water carrying so much rock, mud and vegetation that it behaves more like wet concrete than like a flood. It comes out of a canyon after intense rain on the slopes above, and it moves fast and hits hard rather than rising gradually.
How is it different to deal with than flooding?
Entirely. Flood water is pumped out and the building is dried; a debris flow leaves the ground floor full of material that has to be dug out by hand and barrow. The drying is the last part of the job rather than the first.
Is there any warning?
Only from watching the mountains rather than the sky overhead. The storm that causes it may be entirely over the canyon, several miles away and invisible from the street, so the useful signal is rainfall upslope and not what is happening at the house.
