Kitchens suffer from humidity, extreme heat and cold, water leaks and mold, which can put an immense strain on the drywall, tiles, and cabinetry. Insufficient lighting is another problematic situation, which denies the home owner to truly be proud of their kitchen space.
Kitchens are rooms under constant temperature changes, and humidity. Drywall, unless properly installed is subject to trap the excess moisture which consequently causes them to swell and potentially mold. To prevent this from happening, John Mclellan Contracting replaces the effected areas of drywall, installing specially designed water resistant drywall in its place, as well as repainting the area with color matching paint.
Cracks in grout lines of tiles on the splash back around the kitchen sink are another prime area for water damage to occur; homeowners have seen this as an opportunity to change their current tiles, and cabinets. Water leaks through faulty or compromised pipes, is another leading factor in the staining and molding of drywall and flooring. If not replaced or corrected, this can lead to the damaging of multiple floors of a home, in addition to weakening the structural integrity of the entire house.
