Ceiling & Roof Leak Water Damage Repair in Des Plaines, IL
Water-stained, sagging ceilings are dried, treated, and restored after roof leaks, plumbing failures, and upstairs overflows. A ceiling stain is the visible end of a leak that started somewhere above it, whether a roof detail, a supply line, or a failed seal. The work is tracing that source, drying the cavity above the ceiling, and repairing only once the leak itself has been corrected.

Frequently asked questions
The river stayed in its banks. Why did the basement drain run backward?
Stage, not overbank. May rain raises the Des Plaines enough to lock the outfalls. A floor drain tied to that system then becomes an inlet. The street can look fine while the basement takes the surcharge. The name of the city is the name of the water body that did it.
Is the clay or the river the real problem?
Both, on different lots. Clay-perched seepage wets walls with the river behaving itself. Outfall lock wets the ones with floor drains when the river is high. A May storm can do either. The 1966 stock has both details, so the first question is how the water entered.
Park Ridge and Rosemont are next door. Same ground?
Close, not identical. This grid sits lower on the river and closer to the airport runoff. A Park Ridge hill lot is not a Des Plaines floodplain basement. Use the river stage and the clay, not the inner-suburban label.
