Our crews

Finishers, not just hangers with a knife

Nate Sturgis started taping for other contractors in 2004 and went out on his own in 2010. Hanging board is the easy part, and the difference between a decent wall and a great one is the third coat and the sanding. All four crews are employees, and the same finisher who tapes your house does the final sand.

•Dust controlled sanding with vacuum systems, not just a fan in the window
•One year warranty on cracks and nail pops from our work
•We coordinate directly with your painter so nobody is guessing about primer

Reviews

From builders and homeowners

“We put them on every spec home now. Painter says our walls come to him cleaner than anyone else's.”

Doug W., Custom builder, Elkhorn

“Big window wall, afternoon light, every flaw shows. They did level five and you cannot find a seam.”

Renata L., New build, Papillion

“Patched a ceiling after a pipe leak and matched a 1970s texture I thought was unmatchable.”

Frank O., Repair, Council Bluffs
FAQ

Questions about drywall work

What is a level five finish and do I need it?

Level five adds a full skim coat over the whole surface, not just the seams. You want it on walls with gloss or semi gloss paint, or where side light from big windows will rake across the wall. For standard rooms with flat paint, level four is fine and costs less.

How long does a house take?

For a typical 2,400 square foot home, hanging takes two days, taping and coating four to five days with drying time between coats, then sanding and touch up. Plan on eight to ten working days total, longer in humid weather.

How much dust will there be?

Sanding creates fine dust, so we seal off the work area, cover HVAC returns, and use vacuum assisted sanders. There will still be some dust. We do a full cleanup and haul off scrap, but a final wipe down before painting is always a good idea.

Why do cracks come back after a repair?

Most recurring cracks are movement, not bad taping. Truss uplift, settling, and seasonal humidity all move framing. We use paper tape and, where movement is likely, a control detail. If a crack we repaired returns within a year we come back at no charge.
