Drywall & Plastering

Wall Finishing

Chicago's building stock ranges from pre-war greystone homes with horsehair plaster to modern steel-stud construction—and each requires different approaches. Original plaster repair demands matching textures and profiles that can be a century old, while new drywall work requires Level 5 finishes for the exacting light of modern homes. Water damage, settling cracks, and renovation cutouts all need skilled hands to restore.

Our crews handle both plaster restoration and new drywall installation with the understanding that walls are the canvas for everything that follows. We perform skim coating over damaged plaster, install moisture-resistant board in bathrooms and kitchens, and apply veneer plaster when clients want the elegance of traditional finishes on new construction. Proper taping and finishing technique prevents cracks and nail pops that plague quick installations.

Your walls will be paint-ready with surfaces flat enough for any lighting condition and corners sharp enough to make trim carpenters proud. We coordinate wall finishing with electrical, plumbing, and HVAC rough-ins to eliminate callbacks and ensure your renovation moves forward on schedule.
