Water damage drywall repair and orange peel texture match

This water damage drywall repair and texture matching project is in the Cloisters subdivision of Indialantic, Fl.

We were contacted by a past customer to do a drywall repair on the already cut out and dried out the water damaged walls in two of the guest bedrooms of their home. Water had got the drywall wet on the one exterior wall in each of the two guest bedrooms of this four bedroom home here in Brevard County.

Once we arrived the drywall had already been cutout up to the window sill around 20″ in one bedroom and at 16″ on the other bedrooms wall. The base board and carpet had been removed by the water restoration company when the plumbing leak had first occurred.

So, all we had to do to get this drywall repair party started, was to prep the floors and cover personal items with plastic. Next, I used the paper masking machine to cover the window sills and bi-fold doors ect… so that nothing would get on them while doing the drywall repair and re texturing of the affected water damaged areas.

  • After resecuring the drywall (with screws) where it had been cutout
  • We installed 1/2″ drywall at all of the cutout areas
  • Applied self adhesive fiberglass mesh tape at all drywall repair seams
  • Next,I applied three coats of 20 minute compound for maximum joint strength
  • Sprayed orange peel texture to match existing texture
  • Lasty, I primed and painted the wall repairs using a 3/4″ roller nap on my roller
Water damage from a plumbing leak

Noitice that the drywall was kept up off of the concrete floor by at 1/2″ kept the drywall from getting wet at all on this wall.

Because of a slight slant of the foundation the water from the leak went straight over to the east wall of the bedrooms and the water wicked up into the bottom section of the drywall. Luckily the leak was caught in time so that only a minimum part of one wall was all that needed to be removed.

    Pool Deck Repair and Painting in Indialantic, Fl

    After pressure washing this Indialantic beach homes entire pool deck and the lanai’s textured concrete floors, we acid etched the concrete where the pool deck repairs were going to be done.

    Next we repaired all of the pool deck cracks and floated out the areas where there had been previous pool deck repairs and also skim coated the spots where the textured finish was chipping off in several areas with a thin coat of Kool deck.

    Then, we applied the new surface texture to all of the repaired pool deck areas to match the existing pool deck texture.

    Finally we spot primed with an epoxy floor primer and painted two coats of Richards Paint- Deck Guard pool deck and patio paint.

    Indialantic Ceiling Repair and Skip Trowel Texture Match

    This Project Blog is about a drywall ceiling repair on a home in the Rio Villa sub division Indialantic, FL.
    We were contracted to repair a section of the formal dining room ceiling that had water damage from a roof leak.
    First task was to cover and protect the flooring and anything else in the room.

    Then we removed and replaced a 4′ x 12′ section of the drywall ceiling that had a skip trowel texture.

    After the new drywall was installed, three coats of a setting type joint compound was applied so the drywall finishing and skip trowel texture could be completed in one day.

    Next, we Installed a skip trowel texture at the repaired area feathering into the existing skip trowel texture.

    Then lastly, spot primed the repair and applied two coats of Richards- Rich Wall Premium Acrylic Paint (flat white-L4 white tint).

    Here’s a few Before and After photos of this drywall ceiling repair with Skip Trowel texture:

    I absolutely recommend Peck Painting.

    Paul Peck provided an accurate labor estimate then completed a beautiful and professional 100% interior paint job to my recently purchased home. The job required several sheet rock repairs that are now invisible. His attention to detail is obvious. My home has ceilings up to 30′ with nooks and crannies that look just as good as the easily reachable areas. I absolutely recommend Peck Painting.

      Happy New Year! A Brevard County Contractors 2014 year in review

      I just wanted to say Happy New Year to all my past, present and future customers and fellow contractors. It’s been a very busy year and I’ve worked with some great people throughout the year.

      Looking over my 2014 year in review, It seemed like the economy here in Brevard County was on the upswing with lot’s of activity in the residential real estate and existing homeowner markets. Which included a bounty of renovation, remodel, home improvement and repair contracts throughout 2014.

      For that I Am very grateful.

      I completed many interior and exterior painting projects, stucco repair, pool deck repair, ceiling repair, drywall repair, texture matching and even soundproofing from Melbourne to Viera, Melbourne Beach, Suntree, Cocoa Beach, Satellite Beach, Indian Harbour Beach, Indialantic, Cape Canaveral, Cocoa and Merritt Island here on the Space Coast.

      The paper tape joints were cracking and starting to fall down on this ceiling in Viera.

      This type of problem is very common on interior and exterior drywall ceilings. Over time the paper drywall tape begins to crack and fall down due to the heat and humidity from our harsh Florida climate.

      The extreme weather changes cause the wood framing to expand and contract on a daily basis in turn causing just enough movement of your ceiling to crack and pop the paper tape joints. Especially if the ceiling was nailed or not enough screws were added during the drywall installation process when your home was built.
