How Ceiling Leak Emergency Help Works in Maramec
-
Control the water and the room
Furniture is moved or covered, and anything under the leak that can be saved is lifted clear of the zone.
-
Map where the water went
The technician checks the attic floor, the wall tops and the room below, since water follows framing and rarely stays put.
-
Remove what cannot dry
Dirty water means porous materials come out for good, and the surfaces left behind are cleaned and sanitized.
-
Dry the cavity and verify
Daily logs of humidity, temperature and moisture content build the record the insurer will want to see.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Dirty water from a drain or a roof gives mold and bacteria a faster start. The crew removes porous materials that dirty water soaked instead of trying to dry them in place.
- 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.

Does the crew stop the leak, or does a plumber?
