AC Drain Overflow Team focuses on the water left after condensate escapes. Call (888) 527-9134 before dampness spreads to adjacent rooms. The HVAC technician handles the drain while restoration addresses the building.

Extract escaped condensate
A ceiling drip may create a floor puddle below it. The crew removes liquid water first, then assesses materials above and beneath the room. If a ceiling has dripped onto furnishings, those wet surfaces are documented before equipment moves in.
-
Map the hidden wet area
The crew checks rooms next to the AC source and below attic equipment. Photos and readings record the initial footprint. The map records dry comparison areas as well as affected surfaces for later checks.
-
Address soaked materials
A soft ceiling section can need removal after a leak. The crew keeps people clear of unsafe areas and documents what comes out. The opening is limited to material that needs access, while photographs record its condition.
-
Dry and check progress
A floor may feel dry while the layer below remains damp. Repeat measurements help prevent an early finish to the dry-out. Floor layers are checked again before finish work begins over the affected area.
