How we do it

Our Ceiling & Water-Damage Drywall Repair Process

  1. 1

    Find the source

    We confirm the leak is fixed — or fix it — before touching the drywall.

  2. 2

    Remove damage

    Wet or damaged board is cut out and the cavity dried.

  3. 3

    Replace & texture

    New drywall, taped, finished and texture-matched.

  4. 4

    Seal & paint

    Stain-blocking primer so the ring never bleeds back through.

Schedule Ceiling & Water Damage

Never paint over a water stain

Regular paint lets water stains bleed straight back through. We seal stains with a stain-blocking primer first, and replace any drywall that has gone soft.

Sagging ceilings are a safety issue

If a ceiling is bulging or sagging after a leak, keep people out of the room and call us. Wet drywall is heavy and can come down without warning.

What affects the price

Every job is different, so we price after we understand yours — and you'll always know the cost before we start. The biggest factors:

  • Size of the damaged area

  • Ceiling texture (smooth, popcorn, knockdown)

  • Whether insulation needs replacing

  • Painting the patch vs. the full ceiling

Tip from the Fox

Snap a photo of a new water stain and mark its edge with a pencil. If it grows over a few days, the leak is still active.
