How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Dawson

A ceiling cavity can hold condensate beyond the visible stain. Drying equipment and progress readings address the absorbed moisture.

1. Extract the escaped water

   An attic overflow may drip into a room below. The crew captures surface water before evaluating the ceiling material.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Floor seams and baseboards can conceal an AC overflow path. Moisture mapping shows where the liquid traveled.

3. Remove material that holds water

   A damp carpet pad may need to come out before the subfloor can dry. The technician evaluates contamination and saturation.

4. Dry and verify materials

   The crew monitors flooring and wall edges instead of relying on a dry appearance. Final measurements establish the condition.
