How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Hunter

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

   In Hunter, the first job is often the same: take the weight off the ceiling and get the water into containers. The crew keeps people out from under the sag while it works.

2. Extract the floor and the cavity

   The extraction tech also checks baseboards, wall bottoms and lower cabinets for water that wicked down from the ceiling.

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

   At each visit, the technician reads the same marked spots and logs the numbers. When they match a dry reference, the equipment goes.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Condo owners may have two policies in play, the association's and their own. Which one responds can depend on where the water started. The crew's records make the story easier to tell.

• Record the water category the crew found
• Save every receipt for buckets, plastic sheeting and hotel nights
• Keep the plumber's or roofer's note about what caused the leak

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
