Drywall Taping & Finishing in Oswego

Finishing drywall in Oswego additions and vaulted rooms

Tall walls and sloped ceilings change how drywall finishing goes. Joints run overhead at an angle, outside corners meet at odd pitches, and the long seams on a twelve-foot wall have to stay straight the whole way up. We use flexible bead or tape on angled corners where a standard bead will not sit, and run three coats on every seam from the tape coat to the finish. Staging and ladders go up the right way, and the floor below stays covered.

We cover Oswego and the rest of Kendall County, reaching it on Route 34, Route 71, Orchard Road and Wolfs Crossing Road, on both sides of the Fox River. When a family room is added off the back of a house, the new walls have to line up with the existing ones at the opening, and the new ceiling often meets the old one at a different height or pitch. If your Oswego addition has a vaulted ceiling, the ridge and the angle where it meets the walls take the most care, because window light hits those lines directly. We plan the finishing around those lines first.

What finishing covers in an Oswego addition

How an Oswego addition gets finished

We walk the addition with you, then leave a free estimate that names each wall and ceiling plane, the finish level and the visits needed. If we find a problem left from the framing or the hang, we put the fix and its cost in writing and you approve it first. Coats dry between visits, and we work to the dates on the estimate. Before primer, we go over every plane with you, including the high ones.
