Ceiling water near a light fixture creates an electrical concern. Keep clear; an electrician handles the fixture, and the restoration team handles the wet structure.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Damp dust in a closed joist bay can persist after the visible leak ends. Targeted airflow addresses the concealed space. Airflow through an open cavity can speed drying of exposed wood. Equipment placement changes if readings show one bay holding moisture longer than another.
- Stop using the upstairs fixture and close a safe shutoff if water is still flowing.
- Keep people clear of a sagging ceiling and any wet electrical fixture.
- Move dry belongings away from the drip without standing under damaged board.
- Take photos of the stain and wet contents before moving them when safe.
- Call a plumber for the source and call 24/7 for extraction and drying.
