What Upstairs Tub Leak Ceiling Cleanup Includes in Point
Water around an overhead light needs electrical caution. The Point crew assesses the area before opening wet ceiling material.
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.
For a leaking tub supply, shut off water if safe and get plumbing work started. The Point drying crew addresses soaked drywall after the flow stops.
