How Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Shonto

A warm attic and a damp layer of insulation make a comfortable spot for growth to begin. The risk climbs with every day the material stays wet. A crew in Shonto measures each layer so none gets left behind.

1. Release the trapped water

   Standing water on the floor below gets pumped or vacuumed. A wet vac or portable extractor reaches corners a large machine cannot.

2. Map the moisture

   The measurements go onto a simple room sketch. Return visits use the same spots, so progress is easy to see.

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.
