What do homeowners ask about Ceiling Water Damage Repair?

Do I have to replace the whole ceiling?

Usually no. Ask the independent professional to show you a moisture map so you can see what is wet. They should explain why they would replace a patch versus a whole ceiling.

What about popcorn ceilings?

Ask who will inspect an older textured ceiling before anyone opens a large area. Restore Pro SD does not perform abatement and does not perform that inspection.

Will the texture match?

Ask the independent professional what texture they see and how close a patch can get. Popcorn is the hardest to blend. They should say that before they start.

How do I know the leak above is fixed?

Before the ceiling is closed, ask for evidence the source is repaired: a roofer or plumber record, or dry readings after wet weather. Patching over an active leak is the worst outcome.
