How Upstairs Sink Leak Into Ceiling Cleanup Works in Whiteface

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

   Thermal imaging can point to suspect areas, and material readings confirm moisture. The technician records the findings before opening materials.

3. Open material that traps water

   Contaminated toilet water can make porous materials unsuitable to keep. The crew removes affected material and sanitizes the exposed surfaces.

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

Wet paper-faced drywall provides a place for growth if moisture stays trapped. The crew removes saturated sections when drying in place is not suitable.

• Stop running the upstairs sink until the plumber fixes the leak.
• Close the fixture valve only from a dry, safe position.
• Keep stored cleaners away from children if the cabinet is wet.
• Avoid wet lights and bowed ceiling sections downstairs.
