Drywall Installation and Repair Services in Arvada

Drywall Repair 

Drywall repair is the other side of our business and a major part of what we do. Sheetrock repair is required for many reasons: 

• General wear and tear 
  
• Drywall hole repair after traumatic damage to the wall 
  
• Filing cracks that appear over time 
  
• Repairing structural damage after extreme weather 
  
• Repairing or replacing water-damaged plasterboard 
  
• Fixing sagging walls 
  
• Repairing damaged interior framing 
  
• Re-finishing surfaces to hide marks, dents, or scrapes 

Whatever the reason is for repairing drywall in your home, call us as soon as possible so we can get in and find the best solution quickly. You should never leave damage unattended for too long as it can lead to further problems down the line. 

Our team does everything from a quick drywall patch repair to the complete reconstruction of a storm-damaged ceiling. We also provide inspection services to make sure there is no hidden damage that could cause repeat repair needs later. This is especially important after water leaks and floods. 

Drywall Installation 

Drywall installation sort of covers the whole package of what we do. Really, whatever you need from our professional team of sheetrock experts from start to finish, we are here to help. Installing drywall in a new build or as part of a renovation is a multi-step process, and you can count on us to provide the best service every step of the way. 

Before we talk more about our plasterboard construction services, let us quickly explain what makes us the best choice for drywall installation near Arvada. 

• We work closely with our clients throughout the project to ensure their expectations are met and their vision fulfilled. 
• Client relationships are important to us, and we value the input of yourself as the homeowner when working on an installation. 
• Our team is friendly, professional, and highly trained. 
• All our materials, techniques, and equipment are premium grade for the best results. 
• When we install drywall in your home, you know you are working with honest, reliable contractors you can trust. 

Sheetrock installation is about much more than hanging up some plasterboard. The process begins with a consultation with our seasoned drywall installers to discuss your vision and how best to make it happen. Our services include: 

• A site inspection pre-installation 
• Help measure and plan exact layouts 
• Walk-through explanations of exactly what will happen 
• A free quote before you commit to construction 
• Full cooperation between our team and the property owners throughout the project 
• Provision of top-quality materials (picked by you with our guidance) 
• Preparing and hanging sheetrock according to the plans 
• Start-to-finish excellent service and quality in every job we do for you 
  

Mudding Drywall 

Drywall mudding is the first step in the finishing process. It involves a special drywall paste designed to fill holes, cover marks, and strengthen bonds on any plasterboard installed. When mudding drywall, the idea is to cover any possible blemish, joint, or imperfection that could show up in the finished product. 

We mud drywall corners to make them stronger- as well as the joints to hide seams and gaps. The sheetrock mud is then applied to the general surface wherever necessary. It is left to dry and harden before being sanded down. 

Some people think they can do this part alone- or that it isn't really necessary. There are many reasons why it must be done- and why a professional should be the one to do it. 

• Drywall joint compound is messy, temperamental, and tricky to work with. One wrong move and you are left with a sludgy mess that can leave marks on furniture, carpets, and other walls. It is almost impossible to get off when dry- without a serious amount of elbow grease. 
• If you don’t use it, every tiny flaw will be visible once the drywall is painted. Your fresh installation is never going to look sleek, flawless, and professional without it. 
• It’s not just about looks- it is also about durability. The mud reinforces the corners and joints (along with taping and floating- see below), making the whole thing much more stable for far longer. 

There is a time and a place to put your DIY skills to the test, but mudding is not it. Our team has been doing this for years and has mastered the art of drywall mudding - a quick YouTube video isn’t going to have the same effect. 

Taping Drywall 

The next step in the finishing process is drywall taping. Drywall joints can be drafty, let through sound and light, and generally don’t look good in the finished project. Taping drywall is the process of covering and securing those joints using mud compound and spackle tape. 

Like mudding- this is a crucial step that should never be skipped or taken lightly. Loose, untapped drywall seams can ruin a new installation and lead to the need for repairs a lot sooner than you want! 

The process is pretty simple, but it takes care, precision, and attention to detail to achieve the impeccable finishes we always strive for. We mud the seams, press the tape down on top, and smooth it out. It dries, we repeat- so on and so forth. The same applies to taping drywall ceiling, but specialist safety equipment is usually required. 

Floating Drywall 

Floating drywall is the technical term for the rinse and repeat process of mudding and taping. We float drywall to get the blemish-free, flawless base we want for the final finishing stages. Our signature floated finish sets us apart, and you can always rely on impeccable quality when you request this service. 

Drywall floating, to give you a brief idea, works like this: 

• We apply the expertly mixed mudding paste to the seam between the plasterboards. 
• Special tape is pressed down and smoothed over, with extra care to get the surface even and perfectly in place. 
• When the mud dries, we sand it and re-apply another layer on top of the now-secure tape. 
• It is then left to dry again, and we repeat the process several times until it is perfect. 

Again, it is best not to attempt floating sheetrock by yourself. The materials used for professionally floating a wall are not cheap or forgiving, so if you don’t get it right it can be a costly, timely mistake.  

Drywall Finishing 

The three services detailed above (mudding, taping, and floating) make up the bulk of the professional drywall finishing process- but it doesn’t stop there for us! They say the devil is in the detail, and our dedication to the finest finishes is what sets us apart. 

Before finalizing drywall installations, we provide unrivaled level-five finishes. You deserve this level of quality as a homeowner, and you shouldn't expect anything less from us. The final stages of finishing drywall involve the following: 

• Double checking and finishing drywall corners to remove bubbles, bumps, or dents 
• Finishing sheetrock with a final inspection of the floating work to ensure perfection 
  
• Sanding the finished drywall to remove excess mud, smooth the surfaces, and clear any lingering marks. 
  
• Clearing the dust and repeating the sanding process until everything looks flawless. 

You can inspect the final look to give the homeowner’s seal of approval before you move on to painting and decorating. 

Drywall Removal 

When old material has got to go, we are the team to call. Whether or not it is material we installed or repaired, you can call us to safely and quickly remove it in a way that doesn’t disrupt your home or damage the environment. We take that responsibility very seriously in any drywall extraction. 

We offer drywall removal and disposal services after wall demolition, repairs, and any other circumstances that leave leftover materials that can't be used. If you have pieces of drywall from an old construction and have no way to get them out: call us! 

Our team can also remove drywall ceiling from beginning to end. We have the specialty training and safety equipment to handle these projects- including textured ceilings in old properties. Before any removal, we always inspect the site and discuss the plan of action with you as the homeowner. 

Sheetrock removal must be handled with care to avoid unnecessary mess or damage. Some contractors come in like bulldozers, but we prefer to take a more thought-out approach. Your property is in good hands, and we never start ripping things out before ensuring you are happy with our plan and approve of the proceedings. 

Wall Framing 

Interior wall framing is one of the first steps in the drywall construction process. You need great bones for your new walls to hang from- ones that can stand the test of time and provide a safe, durable living space. Wall framing is the process of building the structures that support the sheetrock. 

There are a few key steps involved when framing interior walls: 

• First, we measure the space and finalize the layout plans with the boss- a.k.a. you, the homeowner. When you sign off on the design, we head to the workshop.
  
• Our experts cut and prepare the beams for the stud wall framing then we bring them to your property to install.
  
• Before we start to build a wall, we map out the spaces for plumbing, electrics, doors, and any other allowances that need to be integrated with the framing. A lot of this is already planned (along with space for insulation) during the planning process, but we believe in double-checking everything. 
  
• We start framing walls using advanced techniques and industry-approved materials to ensure everything is perfectly stable and prepared for the drywall sheets. 

There are many DIY drywall framing guides out there, but please bear in mind that if this part isn't perfect, you could be left with an unsafe, unstable, and mismatching foundation for the entire project. Save the DIY for another day and go with a pro. 

Wall Texture 

It’s official: wall texture design is back. Textured wall patterns add something special to a room- if you are feeling quirky with your interior design style. 

Wall textures are not just about the look- they also have several practical benefits: 

• They dampen sound from other rooms, so they are great for houses or shared apartments with thin walls. 
• It is easier to hide marks, scrapes, and dents with textured walls. Rental properties and student accommodation could find this highly beneficial in the long run. 
• Wall texturing is durable- tough enough to compete with pets that like to scratch and grubby little fingers that like to touch. 

If you still just have images of 60s-style popcorn walls (which are making a comeback, you know), remember that techniques and styles have come a long way. Here are a few popular modern wall texture types you could consider for your property (they also work for ceilings!). 

• Orange-peel 

Orange peel is one of the old-school textures that is coming back into style. It is a far more subtle take on popcorn walls and has an understated, classic finish. It is one of the best for hiding marks and scrapes, so it is a practical choice for a lot of homes. 

• Spanish lace 

If you want a fancier-looking way to cover wall imperfections, the Spanish lace style is the way to go. It almost looks like a whipped cream effect with its swirls. 

• Slap brush 

Slap brush texture has a rough, artsy finish that works well in a creative home for creative people. It isn’t for everyone but can make a bold statement as a feature wall or in a section of a room. 

• Sand swirl 

Sand swirl is a pretty take on wall texture. It is classic, sophisticated, whimsical, and simple- a great choice for a child’s room or living space. 

• Venetian plaster 

The Venetian plaster effect mixes drywall compound with marble powder for a truly unique effect.

Popcorn Ceiling Removal 

Popcorn ceiling removal and popcorn ceiling repair are two jobs that usually require extra care and attention. Don't panic, though- our team is up to the task. Whenever we have a job removing popcorn ceiling, we run a site inspection beforehand. We do this for three reasons: 

• To determine the risk of popcorn ceiling asbestos 
• To decide the best, safest, most environmentally friendly, and time-efficient way to proceed 
• To speak with you as the homeowner to ensure you are comfortable and happy with our course of action 

Remember, just because you have the popcorn ceiling texture in your home doesn’t mean there is asbestos, but it is better to be safe than sorry. If the property is older, the risk is higher. If you don’t want to go through the whole removal process, we can also cover popcorn ceiling with new drywall in the design of your choice. 

Ceiling Repair

Nobody likes finding damage to any part of their home- especially on the ceiling. Arranging ceiling repair services can seem like a daunting task, but it is best to do it right away to avoid the damage spreading or getting any worse. 

Some of the most common reasons we are called out to provide repair services on ceilings are: 

• Water damage from burst pipes, humidity, or storm damage 
• Ceiling crack repair caused by sagging, excess weight, structural issues, or wear and tear 
• Holes and dents from various things leading to structural trauma 
• Scrapes, marks, and other imperfections from wear and tear or left by another drywall contractor team 

As you can see, the list of things that cause ceiling damage is pretty varied- and this is only a glimpse. Part of the reason it is so important to contact us quickly is so we can find the root of the cause early. A simple crack could actually signal more significant interior damage that could lead to much bigger problems in the future. Don’t risk it- give us a call. 

Please note- we also specialize in stipple and stucco ceiling repair. Repairing stipple ceiling or stucco ceiling can be a little more complicated, but we have team members with training in this specific area. 

Ceiling Installation 

There are several types of drywall ceiling installation services offered by our team. 

• Drop ceiling installation 

 We are the leading experts in drop ceiling installation near Arvada. Drop ceiling is a multi-purpose and extremely beneficial technique used for many reasons. We can install drop ceiling in any room, at any scale, in various ways. 

A drop ceiling is essentially a second layer of drywall hung slightly below the original ceiling. It can be used as a design feature to add clever lighting or additional aesthetic interest- or for practical reasons, including hiding damage, wires, or additional insulation. 

When framing a drop ceiling from scratch, we can incorporate just about anything, so make sure you give the team a complete picture of what you want to achieve so we can do it all for you. 

• Soundproof or acoustic ceiling installation 

Any type of drop ceiling adds a level of soundproofing, but we also offer this service specifically. There are several ways to install a plasterboard ceiling to reduce noise or improve the acoustics in a room- and we happen to know all the tricks of the trade. 

• Grid ceiling installation 

Ceiling grid installation is another type of drop ceiling. As the name suggests, it is framed in grids. It is more common in commercial properties than residential ones, but that doesn’t mean it can’t work in your home. The handy panels are great for homeowners that need access to their ceiling interior- be it for electrical work, storage, or ventilation. 

• Water or fire-resistant ceiling installation 

We work with premium materials, and some provide additional safety features. Speak to the team about fire-resistant or waterproof drywall sheets for your ceiling and how they can be installed in your home. 

Ceiling Texture

Adding ceiling texture to your home- either to existing structures or as part of a new installation- can benefit you in several ways. Some people consider it old-fashioned, but modern ceiling texture design is a come-back trend found in many homes these days. Ceiling textures are a design statement, for sure, but that’s not all they are. 

Here is a list of benefits that texture ceiling brings: 

• It can add depth and character to an otherwise plain room. If you don't want to do much decoration but don't want the room to feel bare, a textured drywall ceiling could be the way to go. 
• Rough textures cover marks, scrapes, and imperfections. A classic smooth ceiling texture can be unforgiving at times- especially if a surface isn’t entirely flat. If you don’t want to have to think about repair for a very long time, this is a good suggestion. 
• Sick of heavy footsteps from the upstairs floor? Certain ceiling texture types (most of them) have sound-dampening qualities- even more so than a drop drywall ceiling. 
• Textured drywall ceiling is a much cheaper way to add ceiling design that installing molding or coffering if you want to move away from a plain look. 

With the modern techniques and professional equipment used by our team, this service doesn’t take long. There are plenty of styles to choose from- it all comes down to what you like the best.  

Garage Drywall 

If there is one space in the house that is so often overlooked and under-loved, it is the garage. Many homeowners wish they had more living space and don’t know how to get it- yet leave their garage largely unused or completely ignored. Installing drywall in a garage can change all of that. 

Garage drywall installation is a game-changer. It is a versatile, cost-effective, and efficient way to revamp and reimagine a space. Here are just a few suggestions of what it could do: 

• Put up a dividing garage wall to split the space into two rooms for two different functions. 
• Line the entire build with garage drywall for better insulation and soundproofing- creating a livable space for entertaining, lounging, or gaming. 
• Use plasterboard to reinforce walls before installing storage to free up other areas of your home. 
• Build a separate area within the garage for a laundry room, small office, man cave, or pantry- the possibilities are endless! 

Using drywall for a garage ceiling or wall repair or installation is a smart way to improve your home. When it comes to quality and finishing garage drywall, we take the same approach as we would inside the main property- a.k.a. nothing less than perfection will do. 

Whatever plans you have for your garage, we can bring them to life. Need inspiration? Give us a call- we are always happy to advise on the possibilities.
