Drywall, Priming & Finish Painting
What's Included in Our Drywall, Priming & Finish Painting Service
Most of the drywall work we do in Oakland County is either new installation in additions and finished basements, or repair work on homes where someone patched holes without making the repair invisible. Tape lines that show through paint. Texture mismatches. Nail pops that were spackled but not properly sanded. These are common in Metro Detroit homes that have been worked on over the years. We fix them properly: tape, multiple mud coats, sand to a smooth finish before any primer touches the wall.
Painting follows the same logic. The prep work determines whether the finish looks right: filling nail holes, caulking gaps, sanding glossy surfaces, selecting the correct primer for each surface condition. We use Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams paints because the coverage and durability are consistent. Our crews cut in edges and back-roll walls with technique that produces a smooth result, not the stipple texture that shows under raking light.
We handle drywall and painting as part of larger renovation projects or as standalone work. Coordinating both trades under one contractor means painting happens at the right point in the project sequence. Southeast Michigan homeowners who've managed this sequencing themselves understand why having one team responsible for both makes the whole project run more smoothly.
