Water Damaged Ceiling Repair

Matching ceiling texture can take a few coats. The pros explain what to expect before repair work begins.

When a roof leak is pouring into a ceiling during a storm, a tarp can be placed over the damaged area to stop more water while the ceiling is drained.

Fallen drywall, wet insulation and texture debris are bagged and removed, and the floor is cleaned before drying equipment goes in.

When to Call for Ceiling Drywall Water Damage Restoration in Augusta
