Stained Ceiling Tiles
Brown rings or sagging acoustic tiles mean water is collecting above the grid from a roof drain, pipe or the floor above.

Break-room or reception cabinets with swollen particleboard bases often hide a slow leak from a sink, ice maker or coffee line.

Why Office Buildings in South Lyon Get Water Damage
Roof and Roof Drain Leaks
Flat commercial roofs with clogged drains or worn membranes let water into the plenum and through ceiling tiles.
Water Heater Failure
Tank water heaters in utility closets can rust through and leak into nearby offices and storage rooms.
Frozen Pipes
Pipes in exterior walls or unheated stairwells can freeze and split during a cold snap, then leak when they thaw.
Restroom Overflows
Clogged toilets and sinks in shared restrooms can overflow, and the water often reaches the floor or suite below.

Office Water Extraction Questions Answered
Can the office stay open during drying?
Often, yes. Drying can be set up in zones, with closed areas taped off and equipment kept away from exits and busy hallways.
Can extraction happen at night or on weekends?
Yes. Help is available 24/7, and many offices prefer extraction to start after hours so fewer people are disturbed.
Is the drywall in my office ruined?
Not always. Drywall that stayed firm can often be dried in place. Drywall that wicked water high up or got soft is cut out and replaced.
Who pays for water damage in a leased office?
It depends on the lease and the policies. The building policy usually covers the structure, and the tenant's policy may cover contents.
Why is professional equipment needed in an office?
Glue-down carpet, metal-stud walls and large open floors hold more water than household tools can remove, and drying needs to be measured.
