Ceiling Repair

Ceilings are unforgiving, every light fixture rakes across them. We repair and refinish so the seam disappears.

Ceiling work is the clearest test of a finisher. Light travels sideways across a ceiling and reveals anything that isn't flat. We repair sags, cracks, and stained sections, then finish wide and feather far so the repair doesn't announce itself at 7pm with the lamps on.

How we approach it

  1. 1

    Find out why

    A ceiling crack is a message. We check for a leak, framing movement, or a failed original tape job.

  2. 2

    Protect the room

    Floors covered, doorways sheeted, furniture protected before a knife touches the ceiling.

  3. 3

    Replace and re-tape

    Damaged board comes out, new board goes in on solid framing, seams taped and coated.

  4. 4

    Finish for the light

    Extra-wide feathering so raking light doesn't reveal the repair.

This is probably you if…

  • You can see a brown ring or a sagging seam overhead
  • A crack keeps coming back after being painted over
  • You had a fixture or fan relocated
