Our Ottewell Level 4 finishing process, step by step

Tape and first coat

We tape every seam with mesh or paper tape in your Ottewell home and apply the embedding coat, then coat every screw and nail head.

Build, sand, finish

We apply a second and third coat over the seams and fasteners, widening each pass so it feathers into the surrounding board, then sand the whole surface smooth. See our renovation drywall work in Ottewell if the space needs more than finishing.
