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.

- 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 Pray
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.
What happens to wet insulation during ceiling leak emergency help in Pray?
It is removed and bagged. Insulation holds water against the framing and dries slowly, so the cavity dries faster without it.
Can ceiling leak emergency help save the ceiling drywall in Pray?
Sometimes. Board that is only damp and structurally sound can dry in place. Board that is soft, stained through or sagging is cut out. The readings make the call.
Is ceiling leak emergency help urgent if the ceiling in Pray only has a small stain?
Often yes. A small stain can sit on top of wet insulation and soft drywall. A moisture check shows whether the stain is the whole story.
