What Ceiling Water Damage Water Cleanup Includes in Sedgwick

A plumber or the appropriate trade fixes the source; a cleanup crew dries the damage. Call Water Cleanup Team USA at (888) 578-6508.

How Ceiling Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Sedgwick

1. Remove standing water

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Insulation holding water can keep a wall cavity damp even after the surface feels dry.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew compares final readings with the unaffected reference before equipment removal.
