Our Wedgewood Heights drywall installation process, step by step

Ceiling board first, always

Every boarding job in Wedgewood Heights starts with the ceiling, because the wall board butts up under it and helps carry it. Reversing the sequence leaves Wedgewood Heights ceiling joints unsupported and more likely to crack later.

Wall boarding, screw pattern and seams

Wall board goes up with the correct screw pattern and every seam lands on framing. When the Wedgewood Heights boarding is done, the taping crew can start immediately with no rework.

Room addition and partition boarding in Wedgewood Heights homes

Wedgewood Heights homes from the late 1980s and 1990s are at the age where homeowners are adding partitions, converting rooms and opening up floor plans. New walls go up and existing rooms get reboarded when layouts change. We hang standard 1/2” board on all new partition walls, confirm the framing is square before we start and leave the new walls ready for the taping crew. Board seams land on studs, corners are clean and nothing is proud of the adjacent surface.

Water damage reboarding in Wedgewood Heights

Water damage in Wedgewood Heights homes from the late 1980s and 1990s is one of the most common boarding calls we get. A bathroom leak, a roof problem or a burst pipe means the affected board comes out and new board goes up on the exposed framing. We assess what needs to come down, remove only what is damaged, re-board to match the existing surface height and leave the wall ready for taping.
