How Ceiling Water Removal Works in Baltic

Warm rooms speed up growth on wet materials. In Baltic, a closed-up room with a wet ceiling gets air movers and a dehumidifier from the first visit.

1. Drain the water above

   Before anyone opens the ceiling, the crew covers the floor and furniture below. Then it releases the trapped water in stages, so the weight comes off the drywall gradually.

2. Extract the floor and the cavity

   Carpet pad that soaked through is often cut out and removed, because it dries slowly and keeps holding water against the subfloor.

3. Open and remove what is soaked

   The crew photographs what comes out and labels it for the insurance file before it goes into debris bags.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers push dry air through the open bays, and LGR dehumidifiers pull moisture out of the air. The crew places them from the moisture map.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

The repair of a pipe or roof is often outside the claim, even when the damage it caused is inside. A plumber or roofer bills that work separately. The claim usually deals with the water damage that followed.

• List damaged furniture and electronics with rough prices
• Write down the date and time you first saw the water
• Save every receipt for buckets, plastic sheeting and hotel nights

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
