469-599-3295Ceilings take water damage from above: an upstairs bathroom or laundry leak, a failed attic water heater, a roof leak after a storm, or a burst pipe in the attic. The water pools on top of the drywall, stains it, and can grow heavy enough to sag or collapse.
Repair means finding and stopping the source, drying the ceiling and the space above it, and replacing the drywall that is ruined. A brown ring on the ceiling is the visible part. The real work is drying the framing and insulation above it so the problem does not come back.
Water damage in Plano, up close
Plano's two-story homes make ceiling damage common, because there is a whole floor of plumbing above the downstairs ceilings. An upstairs toilet supply line or a second-floor laundry can let go and soak the ceiling below before anyone notices. Add the attic water heaters common in Plano homes and the hail-damaged roofs after a storm, and the ceiling is often the first place water damage shows.

Water damage gets worse on a schedule. Here is what untreated water does to a Plano home over the first two days.
Water spreads
Water wicks into drywall, carpet pad, and subfloor and travels well past the visible wet area. Most of this is still saveable.
Mold begins
In the warm Plano climate, mold starts colonizing damp materials, hardwood cups, and the musty smell sets in.
Structural loss
Drywall, flooring, and trim cross from dryable to replaceable, mold spreads, and the repair bill climbs fast.
The single biggest factor in a water damage bill is how long the water sits. Calling early is the cheapest move you can make.
