Step 1

Start with safe wide photos of the room.

Wide photos help show where the ceiling leak is located in the room and how close it is to walls, floors, doors, furniture, lights, and vents.

Step 2

Take close-ups that show stain size and texture.

Close-ups can make it easier to compare whether a stain spreads, darkens, bubbles, drips, or changes shape over time.

Step 3

Record the possible water source.

You may not know the exact source yet. These prompts help organize clues for a qualified restoration professional or repair contact.

Step 4

Check nearby areas without disturbing damage.
