Project Summary

This Austin, TX 78724 project addressed significant water damage in a bedroom and walk-in closet on Brook Valley Cir, where exposed studs, missing sheetrock, and severe ceiling staining needed a full repair before any painting could begin.

Once primed, the bedroom and closet were painted a dramatic, deep matte black from floor to ceiling.
