Ceiling and Water Damage in Highlands Ranch, CO

Leaks opened up, dried, rebuilt and re-textured — Highlands Ranch, Douglas County.

In two-storey homes with the bathrooms stacked over living space, a slow supply leak can run for weeks inside a joist bay before anything shows below. By the time the ring appears on the ceiling the board above it is usually softer than the mark suggests, which is why it gets opened rather than painted.

Water spreads along the joist bay before it comes through, so the opening is usually wider than the stain that prompted the call.

Questions about water & ceiling damage in Highlands Ranch

Can you repair it without taking down the whole ceiling?
Almost always. It is cut back to solid board and framing, which is wider than the stain but far short of the room, and you see the extent before anything is closed.
Do we need a plumber first?
If the leak is still live, yes. We will tell you plainly what we can see once the ceiling is open, but the plumbing repair itself is a separate trade.
