Water stains, sagging drywall, and dripping ceilings indicate water damage that needs immediate attention. We locate the source, extract the water, dry the structure, and restore your ceiling to like-new condition.
A ceiling saturated with water can collapse without warning. If your ceiling is sagging, bulging, or actively dripping, evacuate the area below it and call us immediately. Water-logged drywall can weigh hundreds of pounds and cause serious injury if it falls.
Watch for these warning signs that indicate water damage in your ceiling:
Yellow or brown discoloration on the ceiling, often in circular or irregular patterns
Ceiling drywall absorbing water becomes heavy and begins to sag or bubble
Paint blistering, bubbling, or peeling away from the ceiling surface
Black, green, or gray spots appearing on the ceiling, especially in corners
Active water dripping through the ceiling is an emergency requiring immediate attention
Damp, musty smells coming from the ceiling area indicating hidden moisture
Understanding the source helps us fix the problem permanently
Damaged shingles, flashing, or roof penetrations allowing rain water to enter the attic and soak through the ceiling
Water supply lines running through the attic can freeze and burst during Texas winters
Clogged AC drain lines or poorly insulated ductwork causing condensation and dripping
Toilet, shower, or bathtub leaks from upper floors damaging the ceiling below
Attic-mounted water heaters that leak or burst can cause severe ceiling damage
Ice buildup at roof edges preventing drainage and forcing water under shingles
1. Locate the Source: Using moisture meters and thermal imaging, we trace the water path back to its origin - whether it's a roof leak, burst pipe, HVAC issue, or plumbing failure from above.
2. Stop the Water: Before restoration can begin, we ensure the source of the water is addressed. We coordinate with roofers or plumbers if needed.
3. Controlled Water Removal: If the ceiling is holding water, we may need to carefully puncture and drain it to prevent collapse. We extract all standing water from the affected area.
4. Remove Damaged Materials: Wet insulation and saturated drywall must be removed to allow proper drying and prevent mold growth.
5. Dry the Structure: Industrial dehumidifiers and air movers dry out the ceiling joists, attic, and surrounding structure completely.
6. Restore the Ceiling: We install new insulation and drywall, tape, texture, and paint to match your existing ceiling.
From small water stains to emergency ceiling collapses, we handle it all. Call for a free assessment.
