How Bathroom Leak Into Ceiling Cleanup Works in Lilly

The first visible spot may appear late in the leak. Daily readings show whether the structure is actually drying after source control.

1. Extract water beneath the fixture

   A tub or shower spill can run across the lower floor. The crew extracts that water before mapping hidden overhead moisture.

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

   A sealed ceiling can hold water against joists. The technician creates access where readings and material condition show it is needed.

4. Dry the structure and verify readings

   Air movers and dehumidifiers address the remaining moisture. Daily readings show when framing and adjacent finishes reach the drying goal.
