What affects the cost of drywall installation in Westview Village?

Square footage, board type and ceiling complexity

We measure on site and give a fixed price before we start.

Board spec in Westview Village

Standard 1/2” drywall — the right choice for most Westview Village walls

Drywall installation work we do in Westview Village

Full basement boarding in Westview Village homes

The most common boarding call in Westview Village is full basement installation. The builder framed the space; the homeowner is ready to finish it. We hang the ceiling board first — always — then the walls, with moisture-resistant board on all exterior foundation walls. We use the correct screw pattern, land all seams on framing, and cut around mechanical chases and bulkheads cleanly. When the boarding crew leaves an Westview Village basement, the taping crew can start without rework.

Boarding to a premium standard in Westview Village

Westview Village homeowners expect the boarding to match the quality of the rest of the home.

Why Westview Village homeowners trust Emplastrum for drywall installation

Boarding done right means the finish can be done right in Westview Village

The quality of a Level 4 wall finish starts with the boarding behind it. In Westview Village, off-level board, floating seams or sparse screws hand the taping crew a fight. We board every Westview Village job the way a taping specialist would want it boarded — because we are the taping specialist. When we finish the boarding, we can finish the taping to Level 4 without fighting the installation underneath.
