What Upstairs Tub Leak Ceiling Cleanup Includes in Lyle
Wet insulation often needs removal to expose joists. Bathroom Ceiling Water Pros documents the affected area and drying work in Lyle.
A bath that overflows can send a large sheet of water across the upstairs floor. A drain or supply leak may instead wet the same ceiling a little at a time. Both paths can leave insulation and joists damp after the visible drip stops.
A shower pan can send water through seams into framing. A plumber or fixture specialist handles the source; the Lyle cleanup crew dries the affected structure.
