ARES: Damage Restoration & Drywall Repair in Graham, WA

In our area, the most common signs include bubbling or peeling paint, soft or spongy spots when you press on the wall, a musty odor, and visible dark stains. Often these appear after heavy rain, snowmelt from ice dams, or a sudden pipe burst. If you notice any of these, it’s best to call a professional like ARES quickly to prevent mold and further structural damage.

Ice dams are a frequent issue here. To protect your walls, make sure your attic is well-insulated and ventilated to keep the roof temperature even. After heavy snow, use a roof rake to clear the lower edges. Also check for any gaps where warm air might escape. Even with prevention, if water gets in, ARES can dry and replace damaged drywall before the problem spreads.

First, stop the water source and call ARES. We’ll assess the extent of the water intrusion, remove saturated drywall and insulation, and thoroughly dry the area with industrial equipment. Once it’s completely dry, we patch, tape, mud, and texture the wall to match the existing finish. For bigger areas, we may replace entire sections. Our goal is to restore your walls seamlessly and prevent future issues like mold.
