Your Ceiling Drywall Water Damage Restoration Questions Resolved
Why is mold prevention part of ceiling water damage restoration?
Ceiling cavities are dark and have little airflow, so wet joists and drywall dry slowly without help.
How long does ceiling cavity drying take?
Often several days, depending on how wet the joists and insulation are and how much drywall was removed.
What is involved in ceiling drywall water damage restoration?
Draining water from the ceiling, removing wet drywall and insulation, drying the cavity above and rebuilding the ceiling once readings are normal.
How quickly should water extraction from a ceiling begin?
Right away. Water sitting on drywall adds weight and soaks in, and a bulging ceiling can fall without warning.
Can wet ceiling drywall be saved, or does it always need removal?
Lightly damp drywall that is still firm can often be dried. Soft, sagging or soaked drywall is removed.
