For Hillsborough Street, NC ice dam water damage, local crews respond fast to extract water and dry the structure, following IICRC-standard methods to limit the spread and support the claim.
Technicians on Hillsborough Street locate where meltwater entered under the shingles into the attic. They confirm the active leaking has ceased as the ice melts before any drying equipment is placed.
The crew removes standing water from the attic and ceiling area. They open any soaked insulation or a section of wet ceiling drywall to reach the moisture trapped within the structure.
Using air movers and dehumidifiers, the team dries the attic framing, ceiling, and affected wall cavities. They target IICRC-standard dryness so no dampness remains behind the finishes.
Ice dam water damage in Hillsborough Street is uncommon but usually runs from about $1,500 to $6,000 when it happens, depending on how much water entered, how far it spread into the attic and walls, and how much insulation and drywall must come out.
