Seam filling is a fundamental part of drywall installation and repair that ensures smooth, strong walls. Our seam filling service provides precise application of joint compound and drywall tape to every drywall joint. This process prepares walls for painting, wallpapering, or any finishing surface by creating seamless, durable joints. Using professional-grade materials and skilled techniques, we guarantee a clean and lasting result that enhances the strength and appearance of your walls.
Inspection and Preparation
Before seam filling begins, we perform a careful inspection of all drywall seams. This includes checking for loose drywall panels, damaged areas, and any signs of previous repairs. Surfaces are cleaned to remove dust, dirt, and debris. Proper preparation prevents future problems like cracking or peeling by ensuring strong adhesion of joint compounds and tape. All unstable panels are secured to prevent movement that could cause joint failure.
Drywall Tape Application
Drywall tape is essential for reinforcing joints. We select the appropriate type of tape based on the project needs. Paper tape provides high strength and is preferred for most new drywall installations. Fiberglass mesh tape offers ease of use and resistance to cracking, making it suitable for repairs or areas with minor movement. The tape is carefully applied over each seam, embedded smoothly in the first layer of joint compound to create a strong bond between drywall sheets.
Applying Joint Compound
Our seam filling service includes multiple layers of joint compound applied over taped seams. The first coat fills gaps and fully covers the tape. After drying, additional coats are applied with edges feathered to blend into the surrounding drywall. The goal is to create a flat, smooth surface with no visible joints or ridges. Each layer is applied evenly using professional tools to prevent lumps or bumps. Drying time is respected between coats to maintain finish quality.
Sanding and Smoothing
Once the joint compound has dried completely, sanding begins. Sanding removes any high spots or rough areas and produces a smooth surface ready for finishing. Our team uses hand sanding and appropriate tools to avoid damaging the drywall paper. This careful approach results in seams that are invisible once painted or wallpapered. Attention to detail during sanding is critical to achieving a flawless wall surface.
Seam Filling for Repairs
Seam filling is also an important service for drywall repairs. Cracks, holes, or damaged seams are removed, cleaned, and refilled professionally. Our repair process restores the strength of drywall joints and prepares walls for finishing. Using the same precise methods and materials as new construction, we ensure repaired seams blend perfectly with the surrounding surfaces. This prevents cracks from recurring and extends the life of the drywall.
Materials and Quality
We use top-quality joint compounds and tapes designed for durability and performance. Our materials meet all industry standards and local building codes. Moisture-resistant compounds are available for areas prone to humidity, such as kitchens and bathrooms. Fire-rated compounds are used where required for safety in commercial and residential buildings. The right materials ensure seams hold up under varying conditions and maintain their appearance over time.
