How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Hertel

Mold needs moisture, a food source and time. Drywall paper and wood framing supply the food. Removing the water takes away the one piece the crew can control.

1. Drain the water above

   Before anyone opens the ceiling, the crew covers the floor and furniture below. Then it releases the trapped water in stages, so the weight comes off the drywall gradually.

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

   The cutouts follow the moisture map, not a guess. Sound drywall stays in place wherever the readings allow.

4. Dry and verify

   Humidity matters as much as airflow. The technician tracks room readings so the dehumidifier finishes what the fans start.
