We extract standing water, dry structural cavities, and repair the damaged materials so mold never gets a foothold.

Roof leak water damage repair Naples FL is the process of stopping an active roof leak, extracting the water it let in, and drying or replacing every wet material inside the building. We trace the leak with a thermal imaging camera and a moisture meter, because water from a roof leak travels along rafters and ceiling joists before it ever shows up as a stain. Then we extract, dry, and repair the drywall, insulation, and baseboards that took on water.
Naples gets 50 to 60 inches of rain in a normal year, most of it between June and October, and the afternoon thunderstorms push water sideways under shingles and flashing. That is why ceiling water damage from roof leak Naples FL calls spike every summer. If you search for roof leak water damage repair near me Naples FL after a storm, the first 24 to 48 hours decide whether you are looking at a drywall repair or a full mold remediation.
Every roof leak job starts with a full inspection and a written scope. We handle the water extraction, structural drying, mold prevention, and interior repairs. Roof repair itself is coordinated with a licensed roofer so the leak is closed before we finish the inside.
We use a thermal imaging camera, moisture meter, and borescope inspection camera to find the leak source and map how far the water traveled. You get a written report with photos and moisture readings before any work begins.
A water extraction unit removes standing water from ceilings, carpet, and padding. We then set Dri-Eaz and Phoenix Restoration Equipment air movers and dehumidifiers, checking readings every 24 hours until the structure hits dry standard.
We apply antimicrobial solution to every wet cavity and use HEPA vacuum and negative air machine filtration where needed. This stops mold from colonizing the drywall and insulation while the structure dries.
Once the framing is dry, we remove and replace wet insulation, cut out damaged drywall, and install new baseboards. We prime, texture, and paint to match the existing finish so the repair disappears.
We photograph every affected surface, log moisture readings, and build the scope in Xactimate. Your adjuster gets a file they can process quickly, which shortens the time between the loss and your claim approval.
Before we close any wall or ceiling, we verify the framing is below 16 percent moisture content with a moisture meter. You get a final report showing dry readings, so you have proof the job was done right.
Call and we dispatch a crew, day or night. We ask where the water is showing up, whether the ceiling is sagging, and whether the power is safe. Within the hour you get an arrival window, and we bring plastic sheeting and absorbent pads to protect furniture before we start.
We trace the leak with a thermal imaging camera, a moisture meter, and a borescope inspection camera. That tells us whether the water came in at a flashing, a vent boot, or a shingle field, and how far it traveled. The inspection takes 45 to 90 minutes on a typical Naples home.
A water extraction unit pulls standing water out of ceilings, carpet, and padding. If the ceiling is bulging, we puncture it in a controlled spot to release trapped water instead of letting it collapse. Wet carpet padding comes out because it will not dry in place.
We set Dri-Eaz and Phoenix Restoration Equipment air movers and dehumidifiers, then check readings every 24 hours. Most Naples roof leak jobs dry in three to five days. We adjust equipment placement daily until the framing, drywall, and subflooring hit dry standard.
Once the structure is dry, we replace the wet insulation, drywall, and baseboards, then prime and texture to match. You get a final moisture report, photos of the work, and a warranty on the repairs. The roof repair itself is coordinated so the leak is closed before the next storm.
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Finds temperature differences behind walls and ceilings so we can trace where roof leak water traveled without tearing out drywall.
Measures moisture content in drywall, framing, and subflooring. We use it to set the drying goal and confirm the structure is below 16 percent before repairs.
High-velocity air movers evaporate moisture from wet surfaces so the dehumidifiers can pull it out of the air.
Removes water vapor from the air, which speeds drying and prevents moisture from migrating to dry parts of the house.
Pulls standing water out of ceilings, carpet, and padding before we start the drying phase.
Lets us see inside wall cavities and ceiling assemblies through a small hole, so we can confirm the leak source and the extent of the damage.
Creates negative pressure in a contained work area so mold spores and dust do not spread to clean rooms during remediation.
A roof leak soaked the ceiling in a 12-by-14-foot bedroom. The drywall was stained and sagging, and the insulation above was wet. Moisture readings in the ceiling joists were above 28 percent.
We extracted the water, dried the joists to 12 percent over four days, and replaced the insulation and drywall. The ceiling was textured and painted to match. Final moisture report showed dry readings across the entire assembly.
A slow roof leak ran down a wall cavity for a week before the baseboards swelled. The drywall showed no visible stain, but a moisture meter read 24 percent at the base of the wall.
We opened a small inspection hole, dried the cavity with air movers, treated the framing with antimicrobial solution, and replaced the baseboards and lower drywall. The wall read 11 percent before we closed it.
A vent boot failed during a summer storm and water poured into the attic, soaking 200 square feet of insulation. The ceiling below was not yet stained, but the insulation was saturated.
We removed the wet insulation, dried the attic framing to 13 percent in three days, and installed new insulation to restore the R-value. The ceiling stayed clean and no mold grew.
A roof leak creates a chain of problems that gets worse every hour. We stop the water, dry the structure, and repair the damage before mold or structural rot takes hold.

We remove wet insulation, dry the wall cavity with air movers, treat the framing with antimicrobial solution, and install new insulation once the moisture meter reads dry.
We contain the area with ZipWall barriers, run negative air machine filtration, and remove moldy materials. Our Florida Mold-Related Services License (MRSA) covers the remediation from start to finish.
We pull the wet padding, extract water from the carpet, and dry the subflooring with air movers and a hardwood floor drying mat where needed. New padding goes down after the subfloor passes a moisture check.
$1,200 - $4,500 depending on scope
Typical 2026 pricing in Naples for roof leak water damage repair ranges from $1,200 to $4,500, depending on how much water entered and how many materials need to be replaced.

The cost of drying and repairing a roof leak is a fraction of what mold remediation or structural repair costs if you wait. Fixing it now protects your home and your insurance claim.
A leak that stays in one ceiling cavity costs less than one that runs down a wall and soaks the subflooring. The more materials affected, the more extraction, drying, and repair work is needed.
If mold has started, we add containment, negative air machine filtration, and HEPA vacuum work. That adds time and cost, but it is required to make the home safe.
Drywall and insulation are straightforward to replace. Hardwood flooring, custom tile, and cabinetry take more labor and may need a specialty trade to match the existing finish.
Vaulted ceilings, tight attics, and condo high-rises take longer to access. We may need scaffolding or a lift, which adds to the labor cost.
“A storm pushed water through our roof flashing and the ceiling in our living room started dripping at 11 p.m. We called and a crew was here in about an hour. They extracted the water, set up air movers and a dehumidifier, and had the ceiling dry in four days. The drywall repair matches perfectly.”

✓ Verified“We manage several rentals in Olde Naples and a roof leak soaked a tenant's bedroom wall. The team documented everything in Xactimate, worked with the insurance adjuster, and replaced the insulation and drywall. They treated the framing with antimicrobial solution so we did not get a mold problem.”
David R.Property Manager, Downtown Naples
✓ Verified“Our roof leaked after a heavy rain and we did not notice until the baseboards started to swell. They found the leak with a thermal camera, dried the wall cavity, and repaired the drywall and baseboards. The moisture readings were below 16 percent before they closed the wall. No mold, no callbacks.”
