How Attic AC Leak Into Ceiling Cleanup Works in Rehoboth

1. Extract escaped condensate

   When a drain pan spills, extraction limits the water that could spread. Wet floor coverings are checked for trapped moisture. A pan spill above a room can feed several low spots; each puddle gets assessed.

2. Map the hidden wet area

   An air handler leak may travel under flooring. The crew tests the subfloor and nearby trim for moisture. Water under a closet threshold may follow seams that cannot be seen from above.

3. Address soaked materials

   A soft ceiling section can need removal after a leak. The crew keeps people clear of unsafe areas and documents what comes out. The opening is limited to material that needs access, while photographs record its condition.

4. Dry and check progress

   Drying continues until readings support that the affected materials are dry. The crew records progress for the loss file. Recorded progress shows when materials stopped holding excess moisture from the AC leak.
