Will you handle both drywall and paint in my Ritchie basement?

Yes — that is how most basement projects in Ritchie work with us. One quote covers boarding, finishing and painting.

Yes — Allendale, Argyll, Belgravia is part of our regular service area, and we are usually booked within the week. We also cover Allendale, Argyll, Belgravia and Scona.

When can paint go on after Ritchie drywall wraps?

The Ritchie answer: when the compound is verifiably cured; we check before primer so the paint holds.

After full cure — confirmed before any Ritchie priming — because paint over damp compound fails early.

Why primer comes first

Fresh Ritchie drywall absorbs unevenly until it is primed right — and an unprimed wall makes any finish coat look patchy. Because we board and finish the basement drywall in Ritchie ourselves, we know exactly when it is dry and ready to prime.

No gap between trades

We move from finishing the drywall straight into priming and painting, without waiting on a separate painter's schedule.
