Board hung and finished over open framing for additions, basements, garages, and remodels. Panel choice is made room by room — moisture-resistant where humidity sits, Type X where a rated assembly is called for — and the finish level is settled before the first sheet goes up rather than negotiated at the sanding stage.
Popped fasteners, opened seams, doorknob holes, and damaged panels cut back, patched, textured, and primed. Screw pops that reappear every February are treated as a seasonal moisture problem rather than a filling problem, because refilling the same fastener each spring is a maintenance subscription nobody signed up for.
Sagging, cracked, or stained ceilings repaired or reboarded after the framing and insulation above have been checked. Ceiling stains along an exterior wall usually point at an ice dam rather than a plumbing leak, and repairing the board without addressing what put water there means doing it again next winter.
Board removed, replaced, and refinished after a leak, ice dam, or overflow has been stopped and the cavity dried. Wet insulation above a ceiling holds moisture long after the drywall feels dry, so what's above the board gets checked before anything closes back up. Roofing and mold remediation are separate trades.
Taping, coating, and sanding taken to the level the room actually needs. Level 4 suits most walls under flat or eggshell paint. Level 5 skim-coats the full surface and pays off under gloss or wherever low winter sun comes through a south window and runs the length of a wall.
Knockdown, orange peel, and smooth finishes sprayed fresh or matched into existing walls and ceilings. Because most housing here was built in the drywall era, matching an existing sprayed texture is the common request — and it starts with sampling the original and testing on scrap, not with guessing at the gun.
Texture scraped, the ceiling reskimmed or reboarded, and a smooth or knockdown finish applied. Homes built before the mid-1980s get the ceiling tested for asbestos before a scraper touches it. The test is not a formality and its result, not the calendar, sets the start date.
Plaster patched and skim-coated where it's sound, converted to board where the lath has failed. Plaster is the exception rather than the rule in Brown County — it concentrates in the Astor Historic District and the older blocks near downtown, where new board meeting old plaster needs a skim coat across the joint.
Tape set into a wet first coat, corner bead run true, then fill and finish coats feathered wider on each pass. Compound is selected by stage rather than by convenience, and every coat dries through before the next — which takes longer here in January, when a cold house slows compound down whatever the schedule says.
Walls and ceilings removed and reboarded once patching stops making sense. The local version is usually an upstairs ceiling that has taken repeated ice-dam water over several winters, or a wall that has been patched so many times it no longer sits flat. Includes removal, disposal, framing inspection and finishing back into the surrounding surface.
Lower-level walls and ceilings framed, boarded and finished with the below-grade decisions made up front. Rigid foam against the foundation, framing held off the concrete, unfaced cavity insulation and moisture-resistant panel — and with the frost line here running past four feet, what happens at the rim joist matters as much as what happens on the wall.
Office, retail, restaurant, and clinic drywall installed to requirements residential work never carries: fire-rated assemblies, sound ratings between tenant spaces, and finish schedules written by an architect. Installation is sequenced against the trades booked before and after it.
Corridor, lobby, and ceiling damage repaired around business hours rather than through them. Work can be staged after close or run in phases so part of a space stays open while the rest is patched, textured, and primed.
Level 4 and Level 5 finish schedules taped, coated, and sanded to written spec for offices, retail build-outs, and healthcare space. A finish level named in the documents is a requirement, not an estimate of how smooth is smooth enough.
Partition walls, office improvements, and retail build-outs framed and finished on a general contractor's schedule. Coordinated around electrical, HVAC, and fire-suppression rough-in so drywall isn't the trade that pushes an inspection date back.
Light-gauge steel partitions framed and boarded for commercial interiors across Brown County. Gauge follows wall height and what gets hung on the wall, deflection is detailed where a partition meets a deck that moves, and rated assemblies get built to the listed detail rather than approximated.
