FAQs

Can a roof leak from ice dams cause hidden drywall damage in my Lafayette home?

Yes, absolutely. Ice dams force melting snow and water under your shingles, where it can seep into the attic and down interior walls. This often causes hidden moisture damage to drywall, leading to stains, bubbling texture, or soft spots. Big Ben Builders first addresses the roof issue to stop the leak, then expertly repairs or replaces the affected drywall and matches your existing wall finish to ensure a seamless repair.

Why is proper drywall repair important after fixing roof decking rot?

Roof decking rot indicates prolonged moisture exposure, which often means water has traveled into your ceiling or walls. Simply replacing the roof deck isn't enough. The interior drywall may be compromised, holding moisture that leads to mold or structural weakness. Our team thoroughly inspects and performs necessary drywall repair, patching, and re-texturing to ensure your Lafayette home's interior is as sound and healthy as its new roof.

How do you match my existing wall texture after a repair from water damage?

Matching texture is key to an invisible repair. Our Lafayette-based drywall experts are skilled in all common wall finishes—from orange peel to knockdown. We analyze your existing texture and use specialized tools and techniques to replicate it perfectly on the repaired section. This attention to detail ensures the patch blends seamlessly with the surrounding wall, leaving no trace of the prior water damage.
