Roof Leak Water Damage Cleanup in Henderson, NV
A roofer fixes the roof. We clean up the water damage inside: wet attic insulation, a stained or sagging ceiling, and whatever got wet in the room below. If rain is still coming in and the roofer can't get there yet, we can tarp the opening first.
Most roof leak calls here come in during monsoon season, when a summer storm dumps a lot of rain in a short time and finds a lifted tile or a cracked flashing. Sometimes it shows up that night. Sometimes it's a brown ring on the hallway ceiling a few weeks later.

What you're dealing with after a roof leak
Water from above behaves differently from a pipe leak. People usually ask the same few things.
The ceiling is sagging. Is it going to fall?
It might. A bulge in the drywall usually means water is pooled on top of it. Keep people and pets out of that room, move what you can from under it, and put a bucket down. Don't poke it if you're standing right under it. We drain it in a controlled way.
Who do I call, a roofer or you?
Both. The roofer finds and fixes the hole in the roof. We handle the inside: the attic insulation, the ceiling drywall and anything the water hit on the way down. If the roofer can't get out before the next storm, we can tarp the roof for now.
It stopped raining. Will it just dry out?
The stain may dry on the surface. The insulation above it usually won't. Blown-in and batt insulation hold water against the drywall and the framing for a long time in a closed attic. That's where mold gets started while the ceiling looks fine.
Why did the stain show up weeks after the storm?
Roof water rarely drops straight down. It runs along the sheathing and the rafters, soaks into insulation, and only shows through the drywall once enough has built up. A small monsoon leak can take a few storms to show.
Do I have to replace the whole ceiling?
Usually not. We cut out the section that reads wet or has sagged, dry the framing above it, then patch and texture the ceiling to match the rest of the room.
How much does it cost? Will insurance pay?
Water mitigation in the Las Vegas Valley usually costs $1,500 to $4,800. That covers getting the water out, drying the structure and checking it with moisture meters until the readings are back to normal. If drywall, baseboards or flooring had to come out, the repairs are a separate estimate, so you see each part on its own.
On a roof leak, the attic sets the price. A small stain with dry insulation above it is a quick fix. A leak that soaked a wide area of blown-in insulation means pulling it out, opening more ceiling and replacing both.

Insurance or self-pay, you decide
Insurance usually pays when the water came on suddenly, like a supply line that split overnight. A leak that dripped for months usually isn't covered. Your carrier makes that call, not us.
We handle the record: photos, moisture readings and a line-item estimate built in Xactimate, the same software most adjusters use. Then you compare it with your deductible and decide whether to file.
Take photos of the roof damage from the ground and of the ceiling inside as soon as it's safe. Storm damage is easier for a carrier to review when the date is clear.
Paying yourself? Ask about the self-pay discount. The estimate is free, and you see the price before we start.

How we handle roof leak water damage
- 1
Cover the opening
If rain is still getting in and the roofer can't make it yet, we put a tarp over the damaged area so the leak stops before we start drying.
- 2
Take the weight off the ceiling
Pooled water above sagging drywall gets drained into containers. Anything that's already fallen gets cleaned up.
- 3
Check the attic and the ceiling
We look at the insulation and framing from above, then read the drywall from below to find how far the wet area goes.
- 4
Remove wet insulation and drywall
Soaked insulation comes out of the attic. Below, the room gets sealed off with plastic before ceiling drywall that's sagging or reads wet gets cut back to solid board.
- 5
Dry the framing
With the ceiling open, air movers and dehumidifiers dry the joists and the back of the remaining board. We don't close it until the readings are down.
- 6
Rebuild the ceiling
New insulation goes back in. Then drywall, texture and paint on the room below.
Where it drips inside is almost never where it entered the roof.
Roof water rides along rafters and sheathing before it makes it to the visible drywall. Following that path back with thermal imaging and a moisture meter gives your roofer a better idea of where to look.
Targeted roof repair beats guessing at it from the curb.
Roof and ceiling assemblies are part of the whole-building approach described in the EPA's moisture control guidance for buildings .
Once the source is tarped and the attic framing is drying, the stain on the room below still needs its own fix. Our ceiling water damage repair page covers how we assess, dry, and rebuild the drywall a roof leak left behind. If the roof needs covering first, see our roof tarping page.
What's included
Everything under the roof deck is ours. The roof itself belongs to the roofer.

What we don't do

- Gutter and drainage work.
Roof leak water damage questions
How much does roof leak water damage repair cost?
For the inside, most dry-outs around Henderson and Las Vegas cost between $1,500 and $4,800. Replacing ceiling drywall and insulation is extra, often about twice the dry-out. The roof repair is the roofer's bill. We price our part for free on site.
Does homeowners insurance cover roof leak water damage?
Damage from a storm that suddenly opened the roof is often covered. A roof that leaked because it was worn out often isn't. Your carrier decides which it was. We take photos of the attic and ceiling and record moisture readings for your claim.
Should I remove wet insulation from my attic?
Wet insulation should come out. It holds water against the ceiling and framing and loses its insulating value once it's matted down. Attic work is hot and the ceiling joists are the only safe footing, so leave it to us if you're not comfortable up there.
Can you tarp my roof after a monsoon?
Yes. We tarp storm-damaged roofs so the inside can dry, and the roofer makes the permanent repair.
