Romeoville Walls Have Their Own Quirks
Romeoville has a mix of 1960s plaster walls, 1990s drywall and newer construction on the east side. Each one needs a different repair approach.
Settling cracks in older homes
Older ranches near Weber Road settle over time. Cracks along the corners and ceiling lines need mesh tape and flexible mud so they don't open back up.
Plaster vs. drywall
Some Romeoville homes still have real plaster under the paint. Plaster repairs need different material than standard drywall mud to stay solid.
Texture matching matters
Knockdown and orange peel texture is common in Romeoville. We match it by hand so the repair doesn't stand out. See drywall repair for details.
Water damage from leaky roofs or plumbing needs to be addressed before we repair the drywall. We check for moisture behind the wall so you're not fixing it twice.
