Rick Rutledge Construction | Damage Restoration & Drywall Repair in Charleston, WV

After a flash flood in Charleston, look for visible water stains on ceilings or walls, peeling paint or wallpaper, a musty odor, or soft spots in drywall. Common areas include basements near the Kanawha River or lower levels in South Hills. If you notice these signs, it's critical to call for emergency water extraction quickly to prevent mold and structural issues.

Absolutely. We handle everything from cutting out saturated drywall to full replacement and wall texturing. If your home in Edgewood or anywhere near downtown Charleston has flood-damaged walls, we assess the extent and perform wall patching, drywall repair, or complete installation as needed. We also restore wall finishes to match your existing decor.

For commercial water damage in areas like Capitol Market, we first perform emergency water extraction to remove standing water. Then, we dry the structure thoroughly. Damaged drywall is cut out, replaced, and new wall texturing or wall finish installation is done to match surrounding surfaces. Our goal is to quickly restore the space so your business can get back to normal without lingering moisture issues.
