How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Loranger
Humid weather slows drying, and slow drying favors growth. Dehumidifiers pull water out of the air so the ceiling can release its own. A Loranger crew sizes the equipment to the room instead of using a rule of thumb.
-
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.
-
Map the moisture
Humidity and temperature in the room get logged next to the material readings. Both affect how fast the ceiling can dry.
-
Open the wet layers
Photos are taken before and after each opening. They document what was found behind the paint.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers push air across the open framing and dehumidifiers pull water out of the room. Both stay on until the readings drop.
