How do I know if my ceiling needs repair or replacing?

If your ceiling has water stains or discoloration, you need a professional to repair the leak and the damaged ceiling. With or without stains, a persistent musty odor could indicate moisture problems and mold growth. A sagging ceiling could also indicate the presence of moisture or structural issues that require expert repair. Peeling or bubbling paint and cracks are other signs your ceiling needs replacing or repairing. No matter the ceiling problem, Mr. Handyman has professional plumbers, carpenters, and drywall specialists ready to help.

How much do ceiling services typically cost?

The cost of specific ceiling repairs or installation varies depending on the project's scope. Other factors, like the type of ceiling and materials, affect cost. Damage from a ceiling fan installation gone wrong can typically be repaired at a minimal cost. Extensive water damage and structural problems are labor-intensive and will increase the price.

How long do typical ceiling repairs take?

The time it takes to complete a ceiling installation or repair depends on square footage, the type of ceiling, and other factors. Your service professional relies on field experience and proven processes to deliver quality work without wasting your time. Depending on the scope of repairs, the project could be completed in a day or several days.

What happens if additional damage is discovered during the repair process?

Structural frame members are typically hidden behind drywall and other ceiling materials. There's no way to identify additional damage until a ceiling repair is in progress. For example, ceiling stains caused by moisture are often the result of hidden damage. Once your service professional assesses the damage and identifies the source of the problem, you'll get a full report and an updated estimate before the next steps are taken.
