How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Ohlman

Dark specks in a ceiling corner that keep spreading are a signal to act now. The crew dries the area around them and removes the materials that stay soaked.

1. Drain the water above

   A pump and hose can carry drained water out of the room, so there are no buckets to haul through the house. The crew sends it to a proper drain.

2. Extract the floor and the cavity

   Carpet pad that soaked through is often cut out and removed, because it dries slowly and keeps holding water against the subfloor.

3. Open and remove what is soaked

   Texture, paint and paper facing can look fine while the gypsum behind them is saturated. The meter tells the crew which pieces have to go.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers push dry air through the open bays, and LGR dehumidifiers pull moisture out of the air. The crew places them from the moisture map.
