Discolored patches or rings on the ceiling usually mean a slow leak from a pipe or the roof above.

How Water Damage Restoration Works in Sussex

Step 1: Site Inspection and Moisture Mapping

Moisture meters and thermal cameras show how far the water went, and the readings become a moisture map for the job.

Step 2: Water Removal Process

Submersible pumps and wet vacuums remove water from carpet, under flooring and other hard-to-reach spots.

Step 3: Targeted Drying and Monitoring

Drying equipment goes where the moisture map shows water, and pros adjust it each day as readings change.

As drying finishes, surfaces are treated to slow mold growth. Any existing mold is removed under containment.
