AC Overflow and Ceiling Leak Repair

Most Magnolia homes have their AC air handler in the attic. When the condensate line clogs and the overflow pan fills up, water ends up in the ceiling below — usually as a brown stain, a soft spot or sagging drywall. It's one of the most common repairs we make. After the leak is fixed and the area is dry, we:

1. Cut out and replace the damaged drywall
2. Tape, mud and match your ceiling texture
3. Prime with a stain-blocking primer and repaint

Drywall Repair and Texture Matching

Holes, dents, settlement cracks, nail pops and old patches that never blended in — we fix them all and match the finish, whether your walls are brush, spray, roll or smooth textured. Most repairs are painted the next day once everything has dried. See drywall repair and texture matching.

Just Moved to Magnolia?

New homeowners often have a list: hang fans, swap builder-grade light fixtures, patch holes left by the previous owner's TV mount, touch up paint and fix a sticking door. We can knock out a whole list in one visit. See fan and light fixture installation, painting, carpentry and handyman services.
