Water damage is no joke, especially when the culprit is a leaky pipe or roof. When water seeps through your wall, it can cause mold and lead to stains on the wall and ceiling. If not remedied quickly, these problems will only get worse. After you have fixed the leak, the next step is to mask the spots that show the water damage by repainting it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Generally, you can use regular paint for areas with water damage. Ensure that the area is completely dry and clean. When you paint over paint, remove all loose paint. Then add a layer of a special primer. This primer will form a barrier between the stain and the new paint. If you do not use a primer, the stain will become visible again after some time.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
