How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Livermore

Spores are already floating in most homes. What they lack is water, and a wet ceiling supplies plenty. The paper face on drywall is an easy surface for them to settle on.

1. Release the trapped water

   A bulge can hold gallons. The technician cuts a relief hole well away from wiring and catches the flow in a container or a hose to a drain.

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

   A technician returns each day to repeat the readings at the sketched spots. A reading that stops falling means water is still trapped somewhere.
