Complete Drywall Water Damage Repair Offerings in West Point
Drywall Water Stain Removal
Once drywall is dry, water stains are sealed with a stain-blocking primer and painted, so they do not bleed through.
Emergency Drywall Water Repair
Help is available any hour when water is running down a wall or a ceiling is bulging, before the drywall fails.
Drywall Drying Services
Small holes near the base of the wall let dry air reach the cavity, drying the studs and back of the drywall.
Drywall Water Extraction
Water trapped in the bottom of a wall cavity is drained through small holes or behind removed baseboards, then the cavity is dried.
Ceiling Water Damage Repair
Ceiling patches need careful finishing so they do not show under light. Texture and paint are blended with the surrounding ceiling.
