What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
People with asthma, allergies or a weak immune system should keep clear of a damp, musty room until the wet materials are out.
- Move people and pets out from under the wet spot, because a ceiling holding water can drop all at once.
- Stop the source if it is a pipe or an appliance: close the shutoff valve or switch off the upstairs fixture.
- Flip the breaker for that room only from a dry spot. If the panel sits in a wet area, stay away and call.
- Set a bucket under the drip, lay plastic below it and lift rugs, electronics and papers out of the zone.
- Photograph the ceiling, the floor and anything damaged before it moves, then dial (888) 527-9134.

Ceiling Leak Emergency Help Questions in Camp Pendleton
Will the ceiling dry by itself once the leak stops?
A small, fast drip sometimes does. A ceiling that has bulged, stained or stayed damp for a day usually has wet insulation above it that will not dry without help. The crew's meters show which case it is.
Does the crew stop the leak, or does a plumber?
A plumber fixes pipes, a roofer fixes the roof and an HVAC technician fixes a drain pan. The water damage crew removes the water and dries what the leak soaked. Call for the crew while the other trade does its part.
Does ceiling leak emergency help in Camp Pendleton mean the whole ceiling comes down?
Rarely. The crew opens the wet section and a margin of dry material around it so air can reach the cavity. The rest of the ceiling stays in place.
How is the water type decided during ceiling leak emergency help in Camp Pendleton?
The technician looks at the source: a supply line starts clean, while drains, toilets and roofs bring gray or dirty water. The category sets what is removed and what is cleaned.
Should I move furniture before ceiling leak emergency help starts in Camp Pendleton?
Move what is safe to move, and leave heavy furniture under a bulge alone. Light items, rugs and electronics should leave the zone. The crew covers or moves the rest.
