Repairing Water Damaged Drywall in the Tri-Cities

Water is the enemy of drywall. In the Tri-Cities, whether it's a burst pipe in the winter or a sudden roof leak, water damage needs to be addressed immediately to prevent structural issues and mold growth.

Signs of Water Damage:

• Discoloration: Yellow or brown stains on the wall or ceiling.
• Bubbling or Peeling: Paint or wallpaper pulling away from the surface.
• Soft Spots: Drywall that feels spongy or gives way when pressed.
• Musty Odors: A clear sign that mold may be growing behind the wall.

The Repair Process:

First, the source of the leak must be fixed. Then, any saturated drywall must be removed. We use moisture meters to ensure the surrounding area is dry before installing new mold-resistant drywall, taping, finishing, and matching the existing texture.

Don't wait for mold to take hold. If you suspect water damage in your Pasco or Richland home, call Tri Cities Drywall for a professional inspection and repair.
