With rising humidity in West Philly and Brewerytown, more homeowners are reporting cracks, bulging walls, and peeling paint. These aren’t just cosmetic issues—they’re often signs of compromised drywall or insulation. At PHS General Contractor Philadelphia, we specialize in drywall repair and full home renovations that resolve underlying moisture issues, not just patch them up.
In Germantown and Fairmount, many older homes face plaster shrinkage or joint tape failures during high-humidity seasons. We’ve recently helped several homeowners strip damaged drywall, treat mildew, and install upgraded moisture-resistant materials.
As certified kitchen remodelers, we also recommend checking above kitchen cabinetry or behind sinks for early signs of water intrusion. These areas tend to trap heat and condensation.
Need help figuring out if your drywall needs replacement or just cosmetic repair? Philadelphia’s Code Bulletin B-0401 offers guidelines, but our team can assess your exact conditions in one visit.
