Wall and basement water damage in Elmwood homes

Types of water damage drywall we repair across Edmonton

Ceiling water damage — roof leaks, ice dams, appliance overflow

The most common water damage repair call from Edmonton homeowners is ceiling damage. Sources include ice dams (common in established Jasper Place communities with older roofs and lower attic insulation values), aging roof leaks, dishwasher and washing machine supply line failures, toilet seal failures and bathroom fixture leaks coming through from the floor above. We confirm the source is addressed and dry, cut back to solid, board, tape and texture match.

Wall water damage — plumbing failures, window and flashing leaks

Edmonton wall water damage typically comes from poly-B plumbing fitting failures (common in homes built 1975–1995), slow appliance or fixture leaks that run inside the wall cavity, and window or door flashing failures in newer builds. Older Edmonton homes — Britannia Youngstown, Canora, Crestwood — have the highest poly-B exposure. We cut the affected section of wall board back to solid, dry material, re-board, tape and finish.

Basement wall water damage in Edmonton homes

Basement exterior wall damage from foundation ingress, window well overflow or failed weeping tile drainage is common in Edmonton homes across all eras. We use moisture-resistant drywall for all basement re-boarding, tape joints to Level 4 and leave a paint-ready surface. No Repair Elmwood boarding happens until the drainage or waterproofing problem is confirmed fixed.

Our Elmwood water damage repair process, step by step

Remove the damaged board

In Elmwood we remove all water-damaged drywall down to sound material — leaving damaged board in place risks mould and a repair that fails again.

Replace, seal and finish

We replace the board, apply a stain-blocking primer so marks do not bleed through paint, then tape, mud and texture-match so the repair disappears.

Water Damage Drywall work we do in Elmwood

Ice dam ceiling damage in 1960s and 1970s Elmwood homes

Elmwood homes from the 1960s and 1970s have older roof assemblies with lower insulation values than modern builds. Ice dams form when attic heat escapes and melts snow that refreezes at the cold overhang. The melt water backs up under the shingles and comes through the ceiling. We confirm the cavity is dry, cut the damaged board back to solid material, install new board, tape and coat the joints and texture match.

Poly-B plumbing failures in Elmwood — wall and ceiling water damage

Elmwood homes from the 1960s and 1970s frequently have poly-B (polybutylene) plumbing. When a poly-B fitting fails, water often runs inside the wall cavity before it shows on the surface. We repair the resulting drywall damage after the plumber has confirmed the cavity is dry: cut out the affected board, install new board, tape and match the texture.
