Another main advantage of using a gypsum board is that it makes your home more fire-resistant. Some boards increase the burn time by more than 40 minutes, giving you adequate time to turn out the fire. These kinds of panels are beneficial if you have a garage that stores flammable liquids.

DRYWALL REPAIR : HOLES IN THE WALL
Most wall holes in residential homes result from either doorknob damages or simply hanging picture portraits on the wall. The more paintings you hang, the more holes you will have on your wall. This problem mainly occurs when you move into a new home, and the previous owner had already hang several pictures on the wall.
The second type of wall hole damage is caused by doorknobs banging too hard on the wall. This type of damage is mainly found near the living room and in the bedroom. There are two ways we fix this type of damage. We can either replace the entire section or patch the hole if it is less than six inches wide.
If less than 6 inches wide, we will use our drywall repair kit, such as a patch mesh, to cover the hole and then apply a joint compound over it. Once it has dried, we will sand the patch to give it an even texture and then apply a suitable color. By the time we are done fixing the hole, you will not tell whether there was a hole there.

RESIDENTIAL REMODELLING SERVICE ;
This service is geared towards property owners who may want to remodel their homes to give them a more personalized feel and touch. However, to remodel a home, you must first remove the old sections and replace them with new sheetrock. When remodeling a home, we advise you to get the services of professional drywall contractors. This is because they have the right tools for the job, and sheetrock removal is dangerous. Some of the tools required to remove and install new drywall include:
Only qualified contractors should remove the old boards because they have the right mask to protect them from gypsum dust. This dust is harmful to your health because it contains talc, silica, and calcite. |
DRYWALL INSTALLATION SERVICE

We advise our clients always to consider the boards' functionality so that they offer the required utility.

PAPERLESS BOARDS
If you have a problem with mold and mildew in your home, then we suggest you have this board installed because of its mold-resistant capabilities. The only disadvantage of using this type of board is that it will need to be smoothened out because it comes with an inherent texture.

WATER DAMAGE AND CRACKED DRYWALL REPAIR
Do you have a leaky pipe that causes water leaks into your wall? Water leaks in gypsum boards cause unsightly and embarrassing stains. If this is not immediately fixed, then the damage can worsen and result in bulging wallboards, peeling of paint, tape, and joint compound bubbling.
When repairing water damage, we take the utmost caution not to cause unnecessary costs. The first step is to cut the damaged section and coat the surrounding area with a primer. Thirdly, a new drywall board will be installed and a fiberglass mesh added on top of it. Lastly, the area is mud, and a second coat of primer added.
We will also inspect visible wall cracks and make suggestions on preventing those cracks from occurring again in the future. In most cases, the cracks are caused by either foundation settlement, a sudden change in internal temperatures, and frame deterioration.

SOUND PROOFING SERVICES
Sounding proofing is the process of reducing unwanted sound waves from entering or leaving a room. It works in two main ways. The first is where mass is added to the walls so that sound energy is reflected away or converted into heat energy. The second way is by using a sound absorption material such as Rockwool. Once sound waves hit Rockwool, it is absorbed hence reducing the number of waves that bounce back.

There are two types of soundproofing done:
Airborne soundproofing : This is suitable for use when you want to get rid of traffic noise and noisy neighbors. Impact Soundproofing : This method is preferred to soundproof against impact sounds such as dryers, machinery, and impact sound from people walking heavily on floors. |

CAVITY WALL INSULATION
Did you know that more than one-third of the amount of heat lost in a brick property is through walls? Yes, you got that right. A cavity wall is a wall made up of two separate brick walls with a gap in between. If your house was built more than 20 years ago, give us a call and let us inspect it for cavities. Also, keep in mind that cavities are more existent in brick homes than stone homes. Only consider cavity wall insulation if:

SPRAY FOAM INSULATION
This is the process of using multiple substrates together to create an air barrier. Spray foam is used to form seals through the attic and holes in walls. Most spray foams are as a result of two liquids that quickly react to form a solid blanket once they touch each other. The blanket formed creates a barrier between cold and hot air. Some of the benefits of using spray foam include:

WALL INSULATION
Wall insulation is done to improve efficiency, and there are four main types of wall insulation: Loose-fill cellulose : This is best for attic insulation. It is known as green insulation because it is made up of recycled materials. Another advantage of using cellulose is that it has higher fire ratings than fiberglass because it is denser. Dense Packed Cellulose : When insulating the walls of old homes, we prefer dense-packed cellulose. The only downside to this material is that it requires special machines to install. Dense Packed Fiberglass : Dense packed fiberglass has excellent acoustic and thermal capabilities. It is installed by using a high-velocity fan that blows the fibers into wall cavities. |
