Angle stop failure: ceiling access and floor preservation
A failed angle stop in an upstairs bathroom damaged the area below. Restoration Pro removed affected ceiling drywall and used drying equipment, including Injectidry mats, to preserve the affected flooring.

Water can move along framing, through a ceiling cavity, or beneath a floor before it becomes visible. Restoration Pro provides Mercer Island properties with water damage assessment, cleanup, drying, and repairs. We assess accessible areas around the reported damage and explain where further investigation may be needed.
If the leak began on an upper floor, describe the rooms below it as well as the room containing the source. Changes such as bubbling paint, distorted flooring, or damp trim help identify areas to discuss during the visit. Moisture readings provide information about current conditions, while the history of the leak helps put those readings in context. Together, those details support a more informed restoration scope.
We inspect accessible areas, take moisture readings, and explain where water has spread and which materials are affected.

Can water damage appear away from the original leak?
Yes. Water may travel through building assemblies before becoming visible. Tell us about every affected area, even when it is not directly below or beside the suspected source.
