Restoration Techs Handle All Types of Water Recovery
At SERVPRO®, we know there are several possible sources of unwanted water, and any structure in a Marlborough home can sustain water damage, including places homeowners might think would never become damaged.
When you call SERVPRO for water damage restoration of your Marlborough property, we can handle every aspect, from detection to plumbing to making it "Like it never even happened." One of the structural elements that our restoration professionals handle is ceilings. No matter the location, we can restore it.
Here are different examples of ceilings:
- Basement recreation ceilings,
- Living area ceilings, and
- Unfinished or bare ceilings.
Having a recreation room in the basement keeps games and activities from creating noise or messes in the upper living areas. Often, the ceiling provides soundproofing. Some basements have a dropped ceiling, as well. Water lines running within the ceiling can cause damage from moisture if they sweat or leak. We resolve the moisture problem and clean or replace affected tiles.
The ceiling and upper walls of your living room, kitchen, and other areas downstairs can become saturated if a tub or toilet overflows upstairs. Rain coming in through a forgotten window can also cause an emergency. We can paint over stains left behind by minor emergencies after everything dries. If your ceiling is stretched and bowl-shaped because of retained water, we can handle this, too. In many cases, we can restore the ceiling instead of replacing it.
Builders often leave attic ceilings bare and install insulation directly on the floor to avoid heating an area that occupants will rarely enter. Ice dams and torn shingles can let water inside the attic and damage the ceiling. We check which boards have disintegrated or have mold growing. Starting early prevents extensive damage and the need to remove shingles to perform the necessary work.
