Ceiling Water Damage Repair in Delta, BC
North Delta ceilings fail under upstairs bathrooms in 1970s splits. The rec room shows the leak. The tub drain or the supply is one floor up in Nordel or Sunshine Hills.
Ladner is older and often plaster. The ceiling hides a leak longer, then fails in a heavier piece.
The lid under the tub
We open the wet bays under the bathroom, not the whole rec-room ceiling. The upstairs floor gets metered so the leak is not left in the subfloor.
Plaster lids in Ladner
Lath lets go in sheets. We shore it and take the wet section down before it drops on its own. Drying plaster that is already detached does nothing.
Annacis shop ceilings
Industrial lids are often open joists or a mezzanine. Water from a washroom above wets stock. We dry the structure and move what we must. We are not a warehouse mover.

Questions from this area
Ceiling Water Damage in Delta: common questions
Can we keep the rec-room ceiling and just dry it?
If it is soft, no. If it is a dry stain and the cavity reads dry, paint is enough.
Our Ladner ceiling is original. Will you match the plaster?
We dry and make the lid safe. Fancy plaster match is a finisher after the numbers are down.
Is Tsawwassen the split-level pattern?
Less so. More roofs and slope. North Delta is the bathroom-over-rec-room ceiling.
