Water Damage Repair for Boston Homes & Businesses

Boston's housing stock is unlike anywhere else in the country. Pre-war brownstones, historic triple-deckers, modern condos, and commercial buildings all exist within blocks of each other — and each requires a different approach. We've worked across every Boston neighborhood and understand what each property type needs for water damage repair to be done correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you fix the leak source or just repair the cosmetic damage?

We handle the cosmetic repair — drywall, plaster, paint. We don't do plumbing. The leak source must be fixed before we start — painting over active moisture always fails. We can coordinate with a plumber if needed.

How do you prevent water stains from bleeding through new paint?

Shellac-based primer. It's the only product that reliably blocks water stains, tannin bleed, and smoke odors. Standard latex primers don't block stains adequately. Read the full guide →

How do you know if water damage has caused mold?

Visible mold, musty odor, or discoloration beyond the water stain boundary are indicators. We assess on-site. If mold is present, remediation comes before any repair work. EPA mold resources →

How long does water damage repair take?

Depends on extent. A ceiling stain repair takes 2–3 days — repair, dry, prime, paint. Larger structural repairs involving replacing drywall sections take longer. We scope it at the estimate.
