How Attic AC Leak Into Ceiling Cleanup Works in Mexico

1. Extract the escaped water

   Carpet can hold more liquid than the top feels like. Extraction tools pull water from the textile and pad area.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Drywall below a mini split may hold water beneath intact paint. Readings help decide whether the cavity needs access.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Opening a wall base can expose wet framing after an air handler overflow. Access decisions follow the moisture map.

4. Dry and verify materials

   The crew monitors flooring and wall edges instead of relying on a dry appearance. Final measurements establish the condition.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A soaked carpet pad traps more liquid than the carpet surface suggests. The crew removes or dries affected layers according to their condition.

• Keep people and pets out of rooms beneath a bulging ceiling.
• Do not touch dripping lights, switches or ceiling fans.
• Turn off the AC from a safe, dry control if possible.
• Avoid walking across attic insulation or unsupported surfaces.
• Describe visible stains and drips from outside the affected room.
