Active Dripping From Light Fixtures

Water dripping from a ceiling light is an electrical emergency. Shut off power to that area before anything else.

How Water Damage Restoration Works in Okeechobee

Step 1: Site Inspection and Moisture Mapping

Moisture meters and thermal cameras show how far the water went, and the readings become a moisture map for the job.

Step 2: Water Removal Process

As drying finishes, surfaces are treated to slow mold growth. Any existing mold is removed under containment.
