Yes - we offer free estimates to homeowners. We'll come out, inspect your project, discuss your goals, and provide a no‑obligation quote.

3

How long will my drywall or painting project take?

The timeline depends on the scope of work, the size of the area, and condition of existing surfaces. For smaller repairs or single rooms, projects may take a day or two. Larger installations, full repainting, or basement finishing could take multiple days.

We strive to complete work as efficiently as possible while maintaining high quality. We'll give you an estimated schedule during the quoting stage.

How do you handle drywall damage from water or moisture?

When drywall has been damaged by water, leaks, or high humidity, we will:

  • Assess the extent of damage (including checking for mold or weakened structure)
  • Remove and replace affected drywall sections as needed
  • Repair and tape joints, texture to match existing surfaces
  • Prime and repaint or finish to restore wall appearance


Proper moisture control is essential to prevent recurrence, so we may also advise on ventilation or insulation improvements.

5

Do I need to move furniture or clear rooms before work begins?

Yes, it helps if interior rooms are cleared of as much furniture and fragile decor as possible. Before work starts, we'll coordinate with you about which areas to clear and any items to protect. Our team also takes care to cover floors, trim, and belongings to minimize dust and mess.

6

What kind of finish will my drywall have?

We tailor the finish to your preferences and your home's style. Whether you want a smooth, level 5 finish, light texture, or a specific wall treatment, we can match or coordinate with existing design. Before finishing, we ensure joints are blended, sanding is smooth, and surfaces are ready for paint.
