  Standing water comes off the floor first, and carpet, pad and furniture are lifted so they stop absorbing moisture.

• Ceiling Light Leak Cleanup

  Power stays off while the crew works, and an electrician tests wet wiring and fixtures before reuse.

• Ceiling Fan Leak Cleanup

  Blades fling water well beyond the drip point, so the crew checks beds, walls and floors across the whole room.

• After-Rain Ceiling Leak Cleanup

  Storm dates, photos and daily moisture numbers build a record that shows the loss was sudden for the insurance file.

How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Peever

Humid weather slows drying, and slow drying favors growth. Dehumidifiers pull water out of the air so the ceiling can release its own. A Peever crew sizes the equipment to the room instead of using a rule of thumb.

1. Release the trapped water

   A bulge can hold gallons. The technician cuts a relief hole well away from wiring and catches the flow in a container or a hose to a drain.

2. Map the moisture

   The crew looks at what sits above the ceiling too. An attic, a floor with a subfloor or a roof deck can each hold water that the room below never shows.

3. Open the wet layers

   Board that is sagging, stained through or soaked with dirty water usually comes out. Sound board that read wet may stay and dry in place.

4. Dry and verify

   A technician returns each day to repeat the readings at the sketched spots. A reading that stops falling means water is still trapped somewhere.
