Detailed Attic Water Extraction Offerings in Deepstep
Wet Attic Insulation Removal
Soaked insulation holds water like a sponge and keeps the ceiling below wet. It is bagged and removed so the area underneath can dry.
Emergency Attic Water Extraction
Emergency extraction in an attic starts with catching active drips, then pulling pooled water from between joists with wet vacs and pumps.
Attic Leak Water Cleanup
Wet nails, straps and vent flanges are wiped down, and soaked boxes or stored items are moved out of the attic.
Ceiling Water Damage Cleanup
The ceiling under a wet attic is checked with a meter. Damp drywall may dry in place, while sagging drywall is drained and removed.
Attic Moisture Inspection
The inspection maps where the water went from the leak point, which decides what is extracted, removed or dried in place.
Detecting the Need for Attic Water Extraction in Your Attic

How Attic Water Extraction Works in Deepstep

Readings on decking, rafters and the ceiling confirm the attic is dry before new insulation goes in.
