Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Fond du Lac, WI
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 can a well flow without a pump?
Because the water in it is under pressure. The layer it draws from is confined between beds that water cannot pass through, and it is fed from higher ground some distance away, so the pressure pushes the water up the bore and out at the surface.
What happens to an abandoned one?
It usually keeps flowing. Unless a well was properly sealed when it went out of use, and a great many were not, the water carries on coming up at whatever rate it always did, saturating the ground around it indefinitely and quietly.
What is involved in dealing with one?
Proper sealing by a well driller who does that work rather than anything improvised, and there are rules about it for good reason. Capping a flowing well badly can drive the water sideways into the surrounding ground, which makes the situation worse rather than better.
