The crew first inspects the roof edge and attic in the Peoria home to pinpoint where water entered. They stop any active drip to prevent further damage to the ceiling and insulation below.
Technicians extract any standing water and bag out the soaked attic insulation near the eave. This exposes the wood framing so the drying equipment can work effectively.
Industrial air movers and dehumidifiers dry the roof sheathing and rafters. Moisture readings are taken daily until the space meets the dry standard, preventing mold in the Peoria climate.
