Damage Assessment
We inspect all damage areas, identify the root cause (settling, moisture, impact), and determine the right repair approach for each spot. Working near Roncesvalles Avenue shops, we've learned that Roncesvalles renovated workers' cottages benefit from a thorough pre-project assessment.
Material Removal
Loose or damaged drywall material is carefully removed. We cut back to solid material and ensure proper framing support for the patch. The 1880s-1920s construction common in Roncesvalles means we allocate extra time for proper surface work.
Taping & Mudding
Mesh tape applied to all seams, followed by three coats of joint compound. Each coat is sanded smooth before the next application. Our years of working in Roncesvalles have taught us which approaches work best for the local housing stock.
Finish Sanding & Priming
The repair area is sanded to a Level 5 finish, indistinguishable from the surrounding wall. PVA primer seals the repair for even paint absorption. Roncesvalles homeowners expect a premium result, and this step is where that quality becomes visible.
Paint Matching & Application
We color-match your existing wall paint and apply seamless coats. The finished repair blends invisibly with the surrounding surface. We've built our reputation along Howard Park Avenue and across Roncesvalles by never skipping this final quality check.

Having worked on renovated workers' cottages and Victorian detached homes throughout Roncesvalles for 15 years, we can say confidently: yes, but we first verify the water source is fixed. We remove all moisture-damaged material, treat for mold if needed, replace with moisture-resistant drywall where appropriate, and finish to match the surrounding wall perfectly.
How long does drywall repair take?
Small repairs take a day. Larger projects may take 2 to 4 days because joint compound needs drying time between coats. Rushing this step leads to visible seams. We take the time to do it right.
