Drywall Leak Repair

Once the leak is fixed and the cavity is dry, new drywall is hung, taped and finished to match the wall.

Emergency Drywall Water Repair

Emergency work starts with stopping the water, protecting the room and opening the wall or ceiling where water is trapped.

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 paper is a food source for mold when it stays damp, so walls are dried until readings are normal.

Indicators for Drywall Water Damage Repair in Ballico Homes

Dripping Sounds Behind Walls

Step 1: Emergency Inspection and Assessment

The wall or ceiling is checked with meters, and the source of the water is located.
