Might be better to get a "general" type of contractor or handyman
in IFF you can find one who neighbors or somenone likes and has
done business with. Be sure they're bonded and licensed to work
where you are.

Get the insulation pulled out, locate the source of the water,
and fix it. If the handyman can't handle it, then it's time for
the big bucks for a specialist. It's highly likely a general
contractor can handle that.

Assuming no one buried a dryer vent etc. in there somewhe

My assumption is that you have a plumbing leak (supply or drain)
which is running along pipes/beams/joists to a low spot where it
finally falls thru into the insulation. To trace it might mean
removing more insulation to see just where it's coming from and
the source could be a long ways from where the water is being
found.
