Types of water damage we repair in Kensington homes

Ceiling water damage in Kensington — roof leaks, ice dams and appliance overflow

The most common water damage repair call from Kensington is ceiling damage. Kensington sources include ice dam damage and roof aging, dishwasher and washing machine supply line failures, toilet seal failures and bathroom fixture leaks from the floor above. Kensington is one of Northwest’s newest communities. Window flashing details, appliance failures and basement ingress are the most common water damage sources. We confirm the source is dry, cut back to solid, board, tape and texture match — paint-ready when we leave.

Wall and basement water damage in Kensington homes

Wall water damage in Kensington homes typically comes from plumbing failures inside the wall cavity, window or door flashing leaks and — in older Kensington homes — poly-B plumbing fitting failures. Kensington basement exterior wall damage from foundation ingress or window-well overflow is repaired with moisture-resistant board, taped to Level 4. The drainage or waterproofing issue must be confirmed addressed before we board in Kensington.

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 Northwest 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 — Albany, Athlone, Baranow — 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 Kensington boarding happens until the drainage or waterproofing problem is confirmed fixed.
