Does a roof leak always cause attic water damage?
Almost always some. Even a small leak wets the decking and insulation, which should be checked and dried.
Can wet attic insulation be saved?
Lightly damp areas sometimes dry, but soaked or matted insulation is usually removed and replaced after the attic is dry.
Can I remove attic water myself?
Small drips onto plastic can be handled, but pooled water and soaked insulation need safe footing, equipment and drying.
What is involved in professional attic water extraction?
Catching drips, vacuuming pooled water from decking and drywall tops, removing soaked insulation and drying the framing and ceiling below.
