The holes another trade left in your New Lenox walls closed up and painted so the wall reads as one surface again. Wiring runs, pipe repairs and fixture swaps all leave openings, and we finish them off.
A plumber fixes the leak, an electrician fishes the new wire, and the wall is left with a ragged opening. We square up the edges, add backing strips so the new board has something to screw into, and set a piece of drywall cut to fit. Then it gets tape, three coats of compound feathered wide, sanding between each, primer and paint. If the opening is somewhere you will need to reach again, like behind a tub valve, we can install a finished access panel instead of closing it for good.
We work in New Lenox every week, off I-80 and Route 30 and along Cedar Road and Laraway Road near the Old Plank Road Trail. Access holes tend to land in awkward spots: a ceiling under a bathroom, the back wall of a closet, the side of a stairwell. Before we close anything, we look inside to confirm the work behind it is done and dry, because sealing up a damp cavity traps the problem. If that trade still has a final inspection coming, we wait until it passes.
Openings left after a pipe or valve repair squared up, backed and closed with new board.
Holes from fishing wire or moving boxes patched and finished around the new device.
A finished panel set in where you will need to reach a valve or shutoff again.
Holes overhead closed with new drywall screwed to backing and finished flat.
Doorknob holes, cracks and popped screws handled while we are there.
Every patch primed and painted, or the full wall painted when that blends better.
We look at each opening, confirm the work behind it is finished and leave a free written estimate for closing them. If a cavity is still wet or shows damage nobody mentioned, we stop, price it in writing and go ahead only when you approve. Repairs can start same-day when the schedule allows, and the drying time between coats sets how many trips it takes. We finish with a walkthrough of every patch.
Once the other trade is done, call or text (815) 585-1750. We will check the cavity and write up the patch.
