How Bathroom Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Lowell

A closed ceiling slows evaporation from the joist bay. Controlled opening in Lowell can create access for air movement and moisture measurements.

   Mapping in Lowell helps determine whether the upstairs floor also needs drying access.

3. Expose materials that hold water

   Wet insulation above the ceiling may be lifted out in Lowell so the joist bay can dry.
