Drywall & Framing in Naperville, IL

Framing and drywall for Naperville houses

Our crew frames walls, closes old openings and cuts new ones, then finishes the drywall to match what is already there. A new study, for example, gets studs, a header over the door, insulation in the wall for sound if you want it, and board that is taped and sanded ready for paint. If the wall carries load or needs new outlets, we plan the header and the electrical before anything gets cut. Every piece of that goes into one written estimate.

We work in Naperville every week, coming in on Route 59, 75th Street and Ogden Avenue, with I-88 across the north end. The city sits in both DuPage and Will counties, and permits run through the City of Naperville on either side, so the paperwork works the same wherever you live in town. A lot of what people ask for here is a change to how the floor plan works: closing a wide opening to make a den, or opening the wall between the kitchen and family room. Cutting into a bearing wall means a sized header and temporary support, so we confirm what the wall carries before we quote it.

Naperville drywall and framing work we take on

New rooms from open space

We frame walls and a door opening to turn part of an open floor into a study, den or guest room.

Openings cut or closed

We cut new doorways and pass-throughs with a proper header, or frame in an old opening and finish it flush with the wall around it.

Sound insulation in new walls

Interior walls can get insulation before the board goes up, which keeps a study or bedroom quieter.

Drywall hung and finished

Board is hung, taped and finished in coats, then sanded to a surface ready for primer.

Ceiling and wall repairs

Water-stained ceilings, cracked seams and old anchor holes get cut out or patched and blended into the surface.

Blocking for mounted items

Solid wood blocking goes in for TVs, floating shelves, cabinets and grab bars while the wall is open.

From estimate to finished wall

We visit, check what the wall carries and write up the scope, including any header, electrical or permit work. You see the price before we start, and if something behind the drywall changes the plan, you get a written change to approve first. The framing, board and finish coats are scheduled as one job with one crew. When the last coat is sanded, we walk it with you and clean up so the room is ready for paint.

FAQ

Drywall & Framing in Naperville: questions

Does Naperville require a permit to remove or move a wall?

Structural changes and walls that get new electrical or plumbing generally need a permit from the City of Naperville. We pull the permit when the city requires it and schedule the inspections, so the work is on record.

Can you close up a doorway so nobody can tell it was there?

Yes. We frame the opening, hang board flush with the wall, and tape, feather and sand it so the old outline does not show under paint. If the trim around it needs patching, we handle that too.

How much notice do you need?

Call when you are ready for an estimate. Framing and drywall jobs go on set days once the scope is approved, and we book around the days we said. Call or text (815) 585-1750 to set up the visit.

Do you work outside Naperville too?

Yes, we also cover Lisle, Warrenville, Aurora and Wheaton.

Can the new wall have outlets and a light switch?

Yes. Our crew handles the electrical a remodel touches, so outlets and switches get roughed in while the wall is open, before the board goes up. That work goes through permit and inspection where the city requires it.
