Services

We install corners, we don’t cut them.

  • Framing and Hanging

    Every good finish starts with straight, solid framing. Our crews lay out and frame non-structural metal stud walls, ceilings, soffits, and bulkheads, including curves and arches, then hang drywall following the project drawings and specs. From a small remodel to a 10,000-sheet project, we build it square, plumb, and ready to finish.

  • Drywall Finishing

    We pride ourselves on our reputation for drywall finishing in Southwest Wisconsin. Our finishers tape, coat and sand gypsum board to the finish level the specifications call for, from fire-taping above the ceiling to Level 5 walls that hold up under high, oblique raking light.

  • Plastering

    Plaster is its own trade. Most of the institutional buildings we work in have been renovated many times and carry just as many finishes, so a repair has to match what is already there. We build new gypsum and veneer plaster, and we patch and skim existing plaster so the repair disappears into the original.

  • Painting

    There’s much more to painting than rolling it on a wall. We handle projects that involve epoxy, commercial, industrial, intumescent, and specialty coatings.
