Our Services

Drywall taping and finishing in Des Moines, Iowa, takes care of those pesky visible seams and rough patches that show up after new construction or repairs. A proper job starts with clean, joint-filled seams that are flat and ready for multiple coats of mud, each coat building strength without creating bubbles or ridges. We sand each layer carefully, moving from a coarse grit to a fine finish, to achieve a smooth surface that feels even to the touch. Matching the existing wall texture is essential, so we blend the new mud so it looks identical to the surrounding area. Throughout the process we use dust-control methods like wet sanding and HEPA-rated vacuums to keep your home clean. This approach eliminates bumpy walls and uneven surfaces, giving you a flawless finish you can trust.

Frequently Asked Questions

We can usually start within a week of signing the contract. Our crew checks the schedule and pulls any needed permits first. Once cleared, we show up early to protect your floors and furniture. We bring all taping tools and pre-mix the mud on site. The first day we tape all seams and corners, then let the joint compound set. After the initial coat dries, we follow up with two more skim coats to get a flat surface. You’ll have a clean, ready-to-paint wall in no time.

Drywall taping and finishing includes three main steps. First we apply paper or mesh tape over every joint to lock the sheets together. Next we spread a thin coat of joint compound, sand smooth, and repeat two more times for a seamless surface. We also feather the edges around any repairs or recessed lighting. After the final sanding we wipe away dust and apply a texture if you request one. The result is a perfectly flat wall ready for paint, no ridges or bubbles.

Pricing is based on square footage and the number of coats needed. We charge a flat rate per sheet for taping, then add a per-hour labor fee for each finish coat and sanding. Complex jobs with ceiling work or high ceilings cost a bit more. We give a written estimate before starting, so you know exactly what you’ll pay. Any extra work, like texture matching, is itemized separately. No hidden fees, just the work we do.

You don’t need to stay home the whole time, just be around for the start and any inspections. We’ll lock up the job site and keep tools secured when we leave. If we need access to other rooms or a change in plan, we’ll call you. A quick check-in at the end of each day keeps you in the loop. That way you can go about your day while we work. Our crew respects your property and cleans up daily.

A standard two-room job usually takes two to three days from taping to final sand. Larger areas or high ceilings can stretch to five days. We work in stages: tape, first coat, second coat, final coat, then sanding. Each coat needs proper drying time, typically 24 hours. We schedule the work to minimize downtime for you. Expect the walls to be ready for paint by the end of the project.

We stand behind our work with a written guarantee for one year. If you find any cracks or uneven spots, call us and we’ll fix it at no extra charge.

First, clear the work area of furniture and cover any flooring you want to keep clean. Remove any loose drywall dust with a shop-vac or a damp rag.

Gather all taping tools, mud trays, sandpaper and your protective gear before the crew arrives.
