What this service covers
Drywall is judged under raking light, and that's where bad taping shows. Flat seams, feathered joints and a proper skim coat are the difference between a wall that disappears and a patch you notice every evening.
We hang, tape, finish and repair — from a ceiling cut out after a leak, to cracked plaster in an older home, to framing and rocking a whole basement.
- Hanging, taping and three-coat finishing
- Ceiling repair after leaks and water damage
- Crack and hole repair, including old plaster
- Skim coating tired or textured walls
- Basement and attic build-outs with framing
- Moisture-resistant board in baths and basements
Why it's worth doing
Repairs that disappear
Feathered and floated properly, a patch reads as wall — not a bright rectangle once the paint dries.
Stops a small problem spreading
Water-damaged board holds moisture and feeds mold. Cutting it out and replacing it ends that.
Adds livable square footage
A finished basement or attic is the cheapest way to gain a room without adding onto the house.
A better surface to paint
Skim coating old walls gives paint a flat, uniform base — the reason a repaint can look brand new instead of just newer.
When it's time to get this done
If you're recognising any of these, the job usually gets cheaper the sooner it's handled:
- Ceiling stains, sagging or bubbling after a leak
- Cracks reopening at corners, seams or above doorways
- Nail pops and visible seams across a wall
- Old plaster is crumbling or sounds hollow
- You're finishing a basement, attic or garage space
How the job runs
-
Find the cause first
If there's water damage we identify the source, so the repair isn't undone by the next rain.
-
Cut out and hang
Damaged board removed, framing checked, new board hung and screwed off.
-
Tape and finish
Taped and coated, sanded between coats, skimmed where needed.
-
Prime and paint
Primed and painted to blend with the existing surface, and the area vacuumed clean.
Common questions
Can you match a textured ceiling?
Most common textures can be matched closely. Popcorn ceilings are usually better removed and skimmed flat.
How dusty is drywall sanding?
Less than you'd think — we contain the area with plastic and use vacuum sanding where practical.
How fast can you fix a ceiling?
Small repairs are often two or three visits over a few days, since each coat needs to dry before the next.
