3) Addressing the root problem - Now is the time to address the problem that caused the damage. The following are some of the things you should do:

* Mold remediation – We remove mold growth using our equipment.

* Replacing wet insulation - The trapped moisture is what will cause the structure to deteriorate. It rusts roof fasteners and steel studs, wall tiles and is a breeding ground of new molds.

* Removing wall tiles/panels and steel studs. The more severe the leak is, the more damage it will cause. In such cases, rusting of steel studs or wall tiles is common. It is important to immediately address any signs of leakage.
