How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Olive Hill
Spores float in ordinary air, so mold only needs a damp spot to take hold. A wet ceiling is that spot, and the clock starts with the first drip.
-
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.
-
Extract the floor and the cavity
Standing water on a finished floor can seep into the seams. The crew vacuums those edges first, then works toward the middle of the room.
-
Open and remove what is soaked
In Olive Hill, older plaster ceilings call for a slower approach, since plaster is heavy and can fall in large pieces. The crew plans its cuts and supports before it opens one.
-
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.
