How Bathroom Ceiling Leak Cleanup Works in Oriental

   If water pooled under the drip, the Oriental team removes it and protects unaffected contents nearby.

2. Trace moisture through the ceiling

   The water path through a Oriental ceiling may end at a light opening far from the fixture.

3. Expose materials that hold water

   Wet insulation above the ceiling may be lifted out in Oriental so the joist bay can dry.
