My Water-Damage Repair Process
-
1. Inspection & moisture check
I check where the leak was, test for damp, and confirm everything is dry so the repair doesn’t fail later. -
2. Remove loose or blown material
Any damaged plaster, flaky paint, or soft areas are cut back cleanly. -
3. Fill, skim & sand
Repairs are filled or skimmed depending on depth. Sanded smooth for a seamless finish. -
4. Stain-blocking (no bleed-through)
I use shellac or oil-based stain blockers so the brown marks never return. -
5. Repainted to match the room
Two clean coats for a uniform finish — no flashing, no patch marks.
