Big Drywall Projects, One Crew

When a project covers several rooms or the whole house, you want one crew that can hang, finish, repair plaster, and paint. That is us. We also handle repairs, but the large projects are where we do our best work.

Drywall Problems We See in Aurora Homes

Two-story foyers and tall great-room walls show every seam and nail pop when the light hits them from the side. We finish those walls to a flat, even surface so they look right under raking light.

Homes near water deal with higher humidity, which can loosen tape and cause bubbling or cracks. We fix the damaged area and tell you if we see signs of a moisture problem that needs attention first.

What the Project Looks Like, Step by Step

Book your free estimate. Call (440) 249-0808 or use the booking form.
Find the cause. We look for what caused the damage, check the surrounding wall or ceiling, and measure.
Written proposal. Repair or install, finish level, and whether paint is included.
A confirmed start date. Once you approve the proposal, we put you on the schedule and confirm your dates.
Protect and repair. We seal off the area, protect floors, then hang, tape, mud, and sand.
Prime and paint. Most repairs are primed and painted by the same crew.
Final check. We look at the finish with you in good light and touch up anything that needs it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you repair cracks in a two-story foyer?

Yes. We bring the right ladders or staging for tall walls and ceilings and finish the repair so it blends in.
