Our water damage drywall repair process in MacEwan in Edmonton

Source-dry confirmation before we touch anything in MacEwan homes

Before we cut a single piece of board in any MacEwan home, we confirm the water source has been addressed and the cavity moisture is within acceptable range. What looks dry on an MacEwan wall can still be holding moisture in the board or the space behind it. We check. When it is not ready in MacEwan, we say exactly that and come back at the right time. In MacEwan, a wet source never gets boarded over — full stop.

Cut to solid, board, tape to Level 4 and texture match in MacEwan

Once confirmed dry, we cut the damaged board back to solid, undamaged material. We hang the new board in your MacEwan home and finish joints at Level 4 with coats built up and sanded flat. The repair is invisible under primer. We texture match to the surrounding ceiling or wall — knockdown, smooth or any existing pattern in the MacEwan home — and leave paint-ready.

Our MacEwan water damage repair process, step by step

Remove the damaged board
