Internal Drying After a Roof Leak
A roof leak can affect insulation, roof timbers, ceilings, walls and upper-floor finishes. My HomeDry dries the internal water damage; the roof defect must first be repaired or controlled by a suitable roofing contractor.
The assessment considers the water route, duration, ceiling condition, insulation and whether further rain can enter the building.
Drying cannot outrun an active roof defect
Temporary or permanent weatherproofing must be adequate before a drying programme can be relied upon.
Flat and pitched roof routes differ
Water may travel along decking, insulation, membranes, rafters or ceiling systems and emerge away from the original defect.
Storm events and repeated wetting
Repeated entry can create mixed-age damage and increase the likelihood of deteriorated finishes, insulation and timber concerns.
