How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Patterson

A soaked carpet pad traps more liquid than the carpet surface suggests. The crew removes or dries affected layers according to their condition.

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

   The visible ceiling stain may be smaller than the wet insulation above. A technician checks the broader span before choosing equipment.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Soaked insulation may block a ceiling cavity from drying. The crew removes material when its condition calls for it.

4. Dry and verify materials

   Equipment placement changes when a cavity remains damp. The technician adjusts airflow to reach the affected layer.
