How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Gunnison

A wet ceiling can continue feeding drips into the room. The cleanup crew assesses safe access and removes materials that cannot be dried appropriately.

   Moisture meters reveal damp gypsum and flooring that a visual check may miss.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   A wet insulation pocket may require removal rather than surface airflow alone.

4. Verify the dry condition

   Dehumidifiers and air movers run under a plan guided by material readings.
