A dark ring spreading on your ceiling isn't just an eyesore; it's a structural warning. In Saint Charles, MO, ceiling damage is often caused by roof leaks after severe storms or plumbing failures in upstairs bathrooms.
Identifying the Source
Before we fix the drywall, we must fix the leak. Common culprits include:
- Roof Leaks: Missing shingles or damaged flashing.
- Plumbing Leaks: A dripping wax ring on a toilet or a loose drain pipe.
- Condensation: Poorly insulated HVAC ducts in the attic.
The Dangers of Waiting
Ignoring a ceiling stain can lead to:
- Collapse: Wet drywall is heavy and loses its structural integrity, eventually falling down.
- Mold: Moisture trapped in the ceiling cavity is a breeding ground for mold.
- Electrical Fire: Water can drip onto light fixtures or wiring.
Our Restoration Process
- Leak Stop: We locate and stop the water ingress.
- Drying: We open small holes to circulate air and dry the joists and insulation.
- Removal & Replacement: We cut out damaged drywall and replace it.
- Painting: We texture and paint the ceiling so you can't tell there was ever a leak.
