Detailed Ceiling Water Damage Repair Solutions for Minnetonka

Emergency Ceiling Water Extraction

Help is available any hour when a ceiling is bulging or dripping. Water is drained through a controlled hole before it can bring the ceiling down.

Ceiling Structural Damage Assessment

Damage to joists or trusses is noted for a contractor, since structural repairs go beyond drywall work.

Wet Drywall Ceiling Repair

New drywall is screwed to dry joists, taped and finished in several coats so the repair sits flush with the old ceiling.

Ceiling Leak Source Identification

Before any repair, the pros trace where the water came from, such as the roof, an upstairs bathroom, an attic AC unit or a pipe.

Ceiling Mold Remediation

After removal and drying, framing that stayed wet can be treated with an antimicrobial before new drywall goes up.

Dark spots on the ceiling mean the drywall stayed wet long enough for mold to start.

A musty smell in the room points to wet insulation or framing above the ceiling.

Peeling Paint or Texture

Paint or ceiling texture that peels, flakes or bubbles usually has moisture behind it.

Cracking Along Seams

Cracks along drywall seams can form as wet drywall sags and pulls on the tape.

Air movers and dehumidifiers dry the joists and the back of the drywall above the ceiling.
