Our Restoration Process

How We Restore Your Home

1

Assessment

We inspect the affected area to determine the full extent of the water damage and whether mold remediation is required.

2

Containment

We seal off the work area with plastic sheeting to prevent mold spores and drywall dust from spreading to other rooms.

3

Removal & Treatment

Compromised drywall is removed and disposed of. Exposed framing is treated with professional-grade antimicrobial solution.

4

Restoration

New drywall is installed, taped, mudded, textured to match, primed, and painted — leaving the repair undetectable.

You Don't Have to Be There

Some homeowners want to be on-site and involved throughout the project. Others need everything handled while they're away. KD Drywall N Paint is built to work well in both situations — the process, the communication, and the quality of the finished work don't change based on whether you're present or not.

For owners who aren't local, estimates can often be provided from photos, and all paperwork is handled by email. Progress photos are sent throughout the project. For those who are local and want to be hands-on, we're straightforward to work with and easy to communicate with at every stage.

Important: Before we begin any drywall repair, the source of the water intrusion must be fixed — whether that is a plumbing leak, a roof issue, or an HVAC condensation problem. Repairing drywall over an active leak is not effective and will only result in the damage recurring.

Photo-Based Estimates

Depending on the scope, an estimate can sometimes be provided from photos — though a site visit may be needed to assess certain areas in person.

Written Estimates by Email

Every estimate is delivered in writing before any work begins. You have a clear record of scope and cost.

Progress & Completion Photos

Photos are sent throughout the project so you can follow along and see the finished result without being present.

Property Manager Coordination

We work directly with your property manager or rental management company for scheduling and access.

Lewes properties range from historic homes near the canal to newer construction along the Cape Henlopen corridor. Whatever the property and whoever the owner, the approach is the same: clear communication, written estimates, and work that holds up.

Delaware's First Town

Water Damage & Mold Repair in Historic Lewes

Lewes has seen explosive growth, with major new developments like Cardinal Grove and Tower Hill adding to the established historic and coastal homes. Whether a water leak happens in a new build or an older property, the repair process must be handled correctly to prevent mold and structural issues.

We specialize in repairing water-damaged drywall throughout the Lewes area. Once the source of the leak is fixed, we remove the compromised material, treat the area to prevent mold growth, and install new drywall that blends cleanly with the surrounding walls or ceilings.

Common Water Damage Sources in Lewes

The most frequent causes of water damage we encounter in Lewes include roof leaks after storms, burst or leaking pipes (especially in vacation homes left unoccupied in winter), HVAC condensation overflows, and plumbing failures around toilets, sinks, and water heaters. In coastal areas, high ambient humidity can also cause moisture to accumulate inside walls and ceilings over time.

When to Call Us

If you notice a water stain on your ceiling or wall, discoloration around a window or door frame, soft or bubbling drywall, or a musty smell in a specific area of your home, these are all signs that water damage or mold may be present. Once the source of the water is addressed, contact us for a free assessment and written estimate for the drywall restoration.
