How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Arkadelphia

A ceiling that feels dry after the dripping stops may still be damp inside. A meter finds that moisture, and the crew keeps drying until the numbers drop.

1. Drain the water above

   The technician cuts power to the area and sets containers or a pump hose under the lowest point of the bulge. A small controlled opening lets the water run out instead of dropping in a rush.

2. Extract the floor and the cavity

   A wet-vac and extractor pull water out of the carpet and pad under the drip zone. Hard floors get the same treatment until no standing water is left.

3. Open and remove what is soaked

   The cutouts follow the moisture map, not a guess. Sound drywall stays in place wherever the readings allow.

4. Dry and verify

   At each visit, the technician reads the same marked spots and logs the numbers. When they match a dry reference, the equipment goes.
