How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Axtell

A ceiling that feels dry after the dripping stops may still be damp inside. A meter finds that moisture, and the crew keeps drying until the numbers drop.

1. Drain the water above

   The crew finds the low point where water has pooled and starts the drain-down there. A wet-vac handles what the containers cannot hold.

2. Extract the floor and the cavity

   A wet-vac and extractor pull water out of the carpet and pad under the drip zone. Hard floors get the same treatment until no standing water is left.

3. Open and remove what is soaked

   Soaked insulation goes into bags, and drywall that has gone soft comes down in sections. The crew cuts back to dry, solid edges.

4. Dry and verify

   A thermal camera spots cool, damp areas that a surface meter misses. The crew uses it to confirm that nothing hides behind the finish.
