How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Clackamas

Mold needs moisture, a food source and time. Drywall paper and wood framing supply the food. Removing the water takes away the one piece the crew can control.

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

   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 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.
