Taping & Drywall
Drywall Repair & Patching.
The repair you are not supposed to be able to find afterwards.
On the job
Real work from Durham Region homes and job sites.
Most visible patches fail for the same two reasons: the compound is feathered too narrow, and the texture or sheen is not matched. We fix both.
From doorknob holes to a full wall of cracked seams, we cut back to solid material, reinforce, feather wide and blend the finish into the surrounding surface.
What's included
- Hole patching with backing and butterfly or hot patches
- Crack repair with tape reinforcement, not just filler
- Nail and screw pop correction
- Corner bead replacement
- Texture matching: stipple, knockdown, orange peel and flat
- Spot priming and paint blending
The details
Why cracks keep coming back
A crack filled with compound alone will reopen the next heating season. It has to be reinforced with tape or mesh across the joint, and in the case of ceiling-to-wall cracks, sometimes detailed as a controlled joint instead.
Texture matching
We keep spray guns and knockdown knives on the truck and test-match texture on a scrap board before touching your ceiling.
Common questions
Do you do small jobs?
Yes. We group smaller repair calls by area to keep the minimum charge reasonable.
Can you repaint the whole wall after the patch?
We recommend it. Painting corner to corner is the only way to guarantee no flashing, and it is usually a small addition to the cost.
