How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Street

Warm rooms speed up growth on wet materials. In Street, a closed-up room with a wet ceiling gets air movers and a dehumidifier from the first visit.

1. Drain the water above

   The crew finds the low point where water has pooled and starts the drain-down there. A wet-vac handles what the containers cannot hold.

2. 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.

3. Open and remove what is soaked

   The crew photographs what comes out and labels it for the insurance file before it goes into debris bags.

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.

• Store photos in two places so none get lost
