A brown ring or a sagging ceiling means water is coming from above, from an upstairs unit, the roof, or a pipe. We find the source, dry the cavity, address any mold, and repair the ceiling so the stain does not bleed back through.

What the job involves

  • Source tracing for ceiling leaks
  • Drying of the ceiling cavity
  • Mold checks in enclosed spaces
  • Removal of sagging or unsafe material
  • Ceiling repair and repaint
  • Coordination with upstairs units where needed

What To Expect

How the ceiling water damage process works

A sagging ceiling can give way, so keep people from under it until we arrive. We trace the leak to its source, dry the ceiling cavity, address any mold, and repair and repaint so the stain does not bleed back through. Painting over it without fixing the source never lasts.

Questions

Answers before you call

My ceiling is stained and soft, is it dangerous?

A soft or bulging ceiling can give way, so keep people out from under it and call us. We will find the source and make it safe.

Why not just paint over the stain?

Paint bleeds back through and traps moisture, feeding mold. We fix the source and dry the cavity first, then repair.

Is a stained, soft ceiling dangerous?

A soft or bulging ceiling can collapse, so stay clear of it and call us. We will find the source and make it safe.

Why can't I just paint over the stain?

Paint bleeds back through and traps moisture that feeds mold. We fix the source and dry the cavity first, then repair.
