Additions, basements, garages, and full remodels hung from bare studs and finished paint-ready. Board gets picked by room before anything goes up — moisture-resistant near baths and below grade, Type X where fire code calls for it — then taped, mudded, and sanded to the finish level the room actually needs.
Holes, seam cracks, nail pops, and damaged sections cut out, patched, textured to match, and primed. A doorknob hole is usually one visit; anything bigger gets cut back to the nearest stud so the patch has something solid to land on instead of floating on old board.
Sagging, cracked, or water-stained ceilings repaired or reboarded, starting with a look at the framing above to decide whether a patch will hold at all. Ceilings are less forgiving than walls because you see them from across the room, so the texture gets sampled and matched before anything is sprayed.
Removal, replacement, and refinishing after a leak, backup, or river-water event has already been stopped and dried. Board wicks moisture upward well past the visible stain line, so the first job is finding where the damage actually ends — not where it looks like it ends. Plumbing repair and mold remediation are separate trades.
Taping, mudding, and sanding taken to a paint-ready surface at the level the room calls for. A Level 3 is fine under heavy texture; a Level 5 skim coat is what keeps a wall flat under afternoon light coming off the river or a hallway sconce raking down it.
Knockdown, orange peel, and smooth finishes applied fresh or matched to what's already on the rest of the house. Existing texture gets sampled and test-sprayed on scrap first, because a patch that's a shade too heavy reads as a patch forever once the paint goes on.
Popcorn texture scraped off, the ceiling reskimmed or reboarded, and a smooth or knockdown finish put back. Any ceiling in a home built before the mid-1980s gets tested for asbestos before a scraper touches it — that step isn't optional and it isn't a formality.
Cracked or failing plaster patched in place, or converted to board where the lath behind it has already let go. Roughly three in ten Davenport homes predate drywall, so plaster-to-drywall transitions are routine here — and they need a skim coat across the joint to blend two wall systems that move differently.
The craft stage between hung board and a finished wall: tape bedded into a first coat, corner bead set, then fill and finish coats feathered wider each pass. Compound is matched to the coat — taping mud where adhesion matters, topping where sanding does — and each coat dries fully before the next.
Full walls and ceilings taken out and reboarded when the existing board is past patching — severe water damage, widespread cracking, or a surface that has been repaired so many times it no longer sits flat. Covers removal, disposal, new board, and finishing back to the surrounding surface.
Lower-level walls and ceilings boarded and finished for a livable space, with the below-grade decisions made before framing starts. Moisture-resistant panel, framing held off the foundation, and ceiling access left where shutoffs and cleanouts need to stay reachable.
Office, retail, restaurant, and clinic drywall installed against requirements a house never faces — fire-rated assemblies, sound ratings between tenant spaces, and a finish schedule written by an architect rather than decided on site. Sequencing is built around the other trades already booked on the job.
Corridor scuffs, cart damage, and ceiling sections repaired around a business's actual operating hours rather than in the middle of them. Work can be staged after close or in phases so one section of a floor stays usable while the rest gets finished.
Level 4 and Level 5 finish schedules taped, coated, and sanded to written spec for offices, retail build-outs, and healthcare space. When the project documents call out a finish level, that's the number the wall gets — not whatever looked close enough under work lights.
Partition walls, office improvements, and retail build-outs framed and finished on a general contractor's schedule. Coordinated around electrical, HVAC, and fire-suppression rough-in so board isn't the trade that holds up inspection.
Light-gauge steel partitions framed and boarded for commercial interiors. Stud gauge is picked for wall height rather than habit — 25-gauge carries drywall on a standard partition, heavier gauge goes where the wall runs tall — and rated assemblies get built to the listed detail, not approximated.
The list is the same in each of these cities. What changes is which services actually come up — plaster repair is routine in Moline and close to nonexistent in Eldridge, and a recurring wall crack means something different in Coal Valley than it does anywhere on the Iowa side.
