Court-Hampton Painting can fix any plaster wall repair or ceiling drywall repair caused by water damage to your homes drywall or plaster. Including plaster and lath!
This damage is usually caused by water and frequently located in the ceiling. Ceiling drywall repair is usually required after a roof leak. Skylights are prone to water damage. After the source of the damage is fixed (leaky roof, pipes etc.) our painters will then proceed to do the plaster wall repair in your home.
A typical drywall plaster repair is executed in the following steps:
- For drywall repair Toronto our painters cover floors with fresh clean dropsheets underneath the damage and its surrounding area, and cover any furniture with fresh plastic to protect your home.
- We test the drywall with a moisture meter before starting to help ensure your leak that’s caused the water damage is really fixed.
- The water damaged area is cut out and disposed of to prevent mould from occuring at a later date. Plaster repair Toronto is usually frequent with the recent wet weather over the last few years.
- New drywall matching the thickness of your current drywall or plaster is cut to the size of the hole and attached by 1 inch strapping and appropriate screws.
- Mesh tape is applied to the joints of the cut out drywall and two coats of sheetrock are applied (much stronger than drywall compound) followed by a skim coat of low dust compound. The patch is sanded using our low dust sanding method and then primed.
- We then determine the exact paint product and colour used for your ceiling and depending on the situation will either blend in the patch or paint the entire ceiling.
- After the painting to your home is done we clean up and take away any garbage with us.

We have a new non disruptive method for fixing drywall for damage that was caused by plumbers or electricians!

We had 20-30 holes in our drywall, from an electrical upgrade. Michael did a great job replacing the drywall and painting to match the existing paint. He showed up on time, and did the work in the time frame, and for the cost in his estimate. Very happy with the work.
