Water Spots On Your Noble Home Ceiling

Water Spots On Your Ceiling

As a homeowner, stains on the ceiling are not something you want to see. It should not be too difficult to figure out the source of the water creating the stain. Whether it is an upstairs bathroom or a problem with the roof, whatever is over the ceiling is likely the source of the moisture problem. If you cannot identify a probable water source over the ceiling stain, you could have a pipe that is leaking. It is not uncommon for water to run along piping or rafters before it drops into your ceiling, making it harder to realize the true source of the problem.

A shower pan or piping which has fallen into disrepair is also a possibility for the water damage to your ceiling. Bad piping could mean a pipe is leaking or that the pipe in your Noble home has improper insulation and is sweating. You might need to determine if your pipes need replacing, or if hard water is causing your pipes premature damage.

No matter the cause, finding the source right away is detrimental. SERVPRO, a water damage restoration company, can assist you in this. We can also clean up any damage the water has created and dry your home out thoroughly to prevent further damage such as mold growth. When the water stains are coming from your roof, you must find the nature of the disrepair. You may need to have a roofing contractor come in as well. Our technicians at SERVPRO can have other professionals come in and help us repair the problem if needed.

Fixing the stain or damaged plaster or drywall is the last step, and only comes after the moisture problem is solved. If the water keeps leaking or seeping after repairs are made, they have been done for nothing. At SERVPRO, we ensure the problem is solved before we begin this last step in restoration. Some of the ceiling or walls may have to be torn out and replaced if it is damaged beyond repair, or the stain may bleed through any new paint.

SERVPRO of Norman is professionally trained to find and repair any water damage problems in your ceiling and roof. Please do not hesitate to contact us at (405) 292-0808 as soon as you realize you have a problem.
