The crew quickly arrives to tarp the roof breach, stopping more water. They then trace how far the leak has spread into the attic and ceiling cavities of the Oak Lawn home or condo.
Saturated attic insulation is bagged and removed. In Oak Lawn's humid climate, this material holds water against the framing and roof decking and cannot dry effectively in place, risking rot and mold.
