Readings on decking, rafters and the ceiling confirm the attic is dry before new insulation goes in.

Attic Water Extraction FAQs for Johns Creek Homeowners
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.
Why is a moisture inspection important after extraction?
Extraction removes pooled water, but wood and drywall stay wet inside. Meters show what still needs drying.
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.
What follows after the attic is dry?
New insulation can be installed, and ceiling drywall below is repaired, taped and painted.
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.
