Our Process
Assessment
We assess the damage, identify any underlying causes (moisture, structural movement), and provide a written estimate.
Prep & Demo
Damaged drywall is removed and the area is prepared for new drywall. Any moisture issues are addressed before new material goes in.
Repair & Finish
New drywall is installed, taped, mudded, and sanded. Texture is applied to match the surrounding wall or ceiling.
Paint-Ready Handoff
The repair is primed and left paint-ready. We can also paint the repaired area or coordinate a full room repaint.
