Ceiling Fan Leak Cleanup

Moisture meters and thermal imaging trace the water back from the stain, since the drip is rarely the entry point.
-
Spreading Ceiling Stain Leak Cleanup
A growing stain shows water wicking sideways, so the crew draws the true wet boundary before drying.

How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Moriah Center
Humid weather slows drying, and slow drying favors growth. Dehumidifiers pull water out of the air so the ceiling can release its own. A Moriah Center crew sizes the equipment to the room instead of using a rule of thumb.
-
Release the trapped water
The crew checks the room for electrical hazards first, then looks for the lowest point of any bulge. A small, controlled opening lets the water run into a bucket instead of down onto the floor.
-
Map the moisture
The crew looks at what sits above the ceiling too. An attic, a floor with a subfloor or a roof deck can each hold water that the room below never shows.
-
Open the wet layers
Dust control matters when a ceiling comes down. The crew covers floors and seals doorways so debris stays in the work area.
-
Dry and verify
After the equipment leaves, the rebuild can begin. The crew hands over the log so the drywall contractor knows the framing is ready.
