How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Lapine

Insulation holds water against the back of the drywall for days. Pulling it out is usually the fastest way to cut off the moisture that feeds growth.

1. Drain the water above

   A pump and hose can carry drained water out of the room, so there are no buckets to haul through the house. The crew sends it to a proper drain.

2. Extract the floor and the cavity

   The crew vacuums water from the open joist bays and ceiling edges, so nothing stays pooled above the lower layer of drywall.

3. Open and remove what is soaked

   The crew photographs what comes out and labels it for the insurance file before it goes into debris bags.

4. Dry and verify

   The final check covers framing, drywall edges and the walls under the stain. Only then does the crew pull the equipment and hand over the records.

The repair of a pipe or roof is often outside the claim, even when the damage it caused is inside. A plumber or roofer bills that work separately. The claim usually deals with the water damage that followed.

• List damaged furniture and electronics with rough prices
• Ask the crew for the moisture map and the daily readings
• Keep the crew's written scope with the policy papers
