How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Wallace

Standing pan water may carry dirt into porous finishes. The crew assesses water condition before deciding what material can remain.

1. Extract the escaped water

   An attic overflow may drip into a room below. The crew captures surface water before evaluating the ceiling material.

2. Map the wet boundary

   The visible ceiling stain may be smaller than the wet insulation above. A technician checks the broader span before choosing equipment.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Soaked insulation may block a ceiling cavity from drying. The crew removes material when its condition calls for it.

4. Dry and verify materials

   After extraction, controlled air movement removes remaining moisture. The crew checks the building before finish work starts.
