How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Star Prairie

A ceiling can look dry while the board above the paint is still wet. If the insulation holds water, the 24 to 48 hour window keeps running. Meter readings, not looks, show when it is over.

1. Release the trapped water

   Light fixtures and fans in the wet area stay off. The technician works around them and leaves any wiring decision to an electrician.

2. Map the moisture

   A dry reference reading from an untouched ceiling gives the crew a target. Drying aims for that number, not for a feeling.

3. Open the wet layers

   Anything older that could need testing before it is disturbed is raised with the homeowner first. The crew does not cut blind.

4. Dry and verify

   Dense materials like framing dry slower than thin board. The crew moves equipment around so each zone gets air until it reaches its target.
