Specialized Ceiling Water Damage Repair Offered in Springfield
Wet Drywall Ceiling Repair
Small wet areas can sometimes be dried in place and patched. Larger soaked areas are replaced so the ceiling stays flat and solid.
Ceiling Cavity Drying Services
Cavity drying comes before any repair, so new drywall and paint go over dry framing.
Popcorn Ceiling Water Damage Repair
Popcorn or acoustic texture absorbs water and stains easily. Damaged texture is removed in the repair area and new texture is sprayed to blend in.
Ceiling Mold Remediation
After removal and drying, framing that stayed wet can be treated with an antimicrobial before new drywall goes up.
Ceiling Structural Damage Assessment
Joists and drywall are checked for sagging, soft spots and loose fasteners after a leak, before any patching starts.
