Drywall & Framing in Western Springs

Drywall and framing in Western Springs

We frame and finish drywall on one crew, from partition walls and closets to hanging, taping and finishing board. Angled ceilings, knee walls and skylight wells take the most care, because every corner is a different angle and every seam shows. We frame them straight, use corner bead that holds a crisp line, and finish until the planes meet cleanly. The job starts with a free written estimate, and any change is priced and approved by you before we make it.

We reach Western Springs on I-294 and Ogden Avenue, and work along Wolf Road, 55th Street and the blocks near the Metra station in Cook County. Where a house has bedrooms tucked under the roof, the walls and ceilings meet at angles that drywall does not hide well. Knee walls need framing that runs dead straight along the slope, and a skylight well has four sides that all have to meet the ceiling evenly. We check the framing and the insulation behind them before we hang anything, since a crooked rafter or a gap in the insulation shows up later as a crack or a cold spot.

What we frame and finish in Western Springs

How an upstairs project runs

We walk the rooms with you, measure the slopes and look at the framing from the attic side if we can reach it. You get the scope and the price in writing before we start. If we find a cracked rafter or missing insulation once the old ceiling is down, you see the added cost on paper and approve it first. We set the days ahead of time and go through every angle and corner with you at the end.
