When a roof leaks, the roof is only half the job. The water ends up in your insulation, your drywall, and sometimes your flooring, and the ceiling stain is the part your family actually looks at every night. We handle interior repairs that come out of roof leaks and storm damage — usually as part of the same project, written into the same insurance claim, handled by the same point of contact.
Most of our interior work is ceilings and upper walls, because that is where roof leaks land. The trick is making the repair invisible — matching texture and paint so you cannot tell where the patch ends.
Insurance policies generally cover interior damage caused by a covered roof loss, but the interior scope often gets under-written in the initial claim. We document what we find during demo, supplement the claim when needed, and coordinate with your adjuster so you are not paying out of pocket for damage that should be covered.
If a leak has been going for a while, or if the drywall cavity has been wet long enough to grow something, we stop and bring in a licensed remediation company. We are roofers and exterior contractors, not mold specialists — the right move is a proper remediation, then we come back and rebuild. We will tell you honestly when a job needs that step and help coordinate the referral.
Interior work is dusty. Drywall sanding especially. We mask off the work area with plastic and zipper doors, protect floors, and HEPA-vacuum before we leave. You should be able to live in the rest of the house while we are fixing the part that got wet.
If you have a ceiling stain, a sagging spot, or you know water got in during the last storm, we will come look, write a scope, and coordinate with your insurance if a claim is in play.
