How Upstairs Shower Leak Into Ceiling Cleanup Works in Von Ormy

1. Extract water beneath the fixture

   A technician checks the ceiling drip and the landing area, then extracts accessible liquid water. The room stays clear of sagging drywall.

2. Trace moisture across the ceiling

   Water from a sink can follow a pipe opening before it appears below. Mapping identifies the affected cavity beyond the visible drip.

3. Open material that traps water

   Soaked insulation and soft drywall may need removal to let wet framing dry. The crew photographs the condition before opening the cavity.

4. Dry the structure and verify readings

   The crew logs equipment use and material readings for the claim record. Paint and board replacement follow the verified dry-out.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A stain can be painted over quickly, but trapped moisture remains. The drying team verifies material readings before finish repairs begin.

• Stop using the shower and tell other occupants which fixture is off limits.
• Stay out of rooms with sagging ceiling board.
• Do not touch a wet shower light, fan or downstairs fixture.
