How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Bunn

Painting over a stain does not remove the moisture behind it. Trapped water keeps feeding whatever starts in the dark. The crew dries the layers first so any new paint sits on dry board.

1. Release the trapped water

   The crew checks the room for electrical hazards first, then looks for the lowest point of any bulge. A small, controlled opening lets the water run into a bucket instead of down onto the floor.

2. Map the moisture

   A technician scans the ceiling with a thermal camera, then checks suspect spots with a meter. Cold patches that read wet show where the water really went.

3. Open the wet layers

   Anything older that could need testing before it is disturbed is raised with the homeowner first. The crew does not cut blind.

4. Dry and verify

   The drying log lists the days each machine ran and the readings taken. That log supports the insurance file.
