What Upstairs Sink Leak Ceiling Cleanup Includes in Gray
A bathroom fixture leak can follow seams in the upstairs floor. The Gray crew checks the ceiling below rather than relying on the stain alone.
A bathroom sink can send water beneath a fixed vanity without leaving much on the visible floor. The toe space and plumbing opening provide a route into the floor assembly. Downstairs, a stain may show up several joist bays from the cabinet.
The trade that repairs a toilet is separate from the one that dries the room below. In Gray, a technician records the affected area before extraction.
