Painting Over a Stain Does Not Fix Wet Drywall
When water gets into drywall, the board softens, the paper swells and mold can start to grow. The only lasting repair is to cut out what is wet or weak and replace it.
We find where the damage stops, remove everything affected, let the area dry, then rebuild and finish the wall or ceiling.
- Damage traced to where it ends
- Wet or weak board cut out and removed
- Cavity dried before new board goes in
- Framing and insulation checked
- Texture matched to the surrounding surface
- Itemized quote you can send to your insurer

Water Damage Drywall Repair: Common Questions
Sometimes a small, dry stain can be sealed and painted. If the board is soft, swollen or bubbling, it needs to be replaced. We will tell you honestly which it is.
New drywall should only go on a dry wall. If a restoration company has already dried it, we can start once you are ready.
Small surface staining on board we replace is part of the normal job. If mold is widespread or in the framing, have it treated by a specialist before we rebuild.
We provide a clear, itemized written quote you can send to your insurer. Send us photos of the damage to get started.
