Drywall Tape & Float

Drywall Contractors Lancaster PA 
Looking for drywall taping services? You’ve come to the right place! Taping sounds pretty logical and the photos make it look pretty simplistic but it’s a pretty involved process. It also requires various tools such as a banjo, utility knife, trowel, rasp, mixer, hawk, and clincher just to name a few. If you don’t know what you’re doing, it can be another frustrating process in your drywall installation journey. It’s important to always spend time doing prep work. This sounds like a waste of time but it pays off in the end. 
​
If your next drywall taping job is in addition to existing drywall you have, it’s important to remove broken or loose drywall. Time causes natural wear and tear to your drywall just like anything else but it's important to maintain cleanliness throughout  the entire process when installing new or repairing old drywall. Another step we take for drywall repair jobs, is to fill damaged areas with setting compounds. This is where we use a putty knife, mud pan, “fast-setting” compound, and keep an eye to scrape any excess putty using our fingers and hands sometimes. Time to get messy! For the mud, it comes in “setting-type” and “drying-type” variations. We only use setting compounds for filling gaps and repairing broken drywall corners. Drying compounds for taping comes to powder form or premixed 5-gallon pails. Our team is experienced in handling both types and we come prepared with the right materials so you don't have to worry about any of it. Call us today for a free cost estimate at 717-470-8938.
