Attic water damage can result from roof leaks, damaged flashing, plumbing lines, or condensation. If moisture remains in insulation, roof decking, or wood framing, damage can spread and become harder to repair.
What the Job Involves
The attic is inspected for the water source, wet insulation, damaged roof decking, and moisture in wood framing. Water-damaged materials are evaluated, unsalvageable materials are removed, and the remaining structure is dried.
Signs You Need It
- Water stains on roof decking
- Wet or compressed insulation
- Damp wood framing
- Musty attic odors
- Active roof leaks
- Sagging ceiling below the attic
How the Work Goes
The source of water intrusion is identified first, such as a roof penetration, flashing failure, or plumbing leak. Moisture readings are taken throughout the attic, and damaged insulation or other materials may be removed. Air movers and dehumidifiers are used to dry salvageable framing and decking before repairs are completed.
What Affects the Cost
Cost depends on attic size, leak source, insulation condition, roof access, decking damage, and amount of structural drying required. Extensive material removal or hidden moisture can increase the restoration scope.
