What Kensington does to drywall
Kensington houses move with the seasons, and they crack in the same places every year: over doorways, at window headers, and where ceilings meet walls. Filling those cracks does nothing — they reopen the following summer.
We rout them out and reinforce them with the tape suited to that joint, and where the movement is structural rather than cosmetic we say so instead of selling the same repair twice.
What we are called for here
- 01 Recurring settlement cracks routed and reinforced
- 02 Hand texture matching on period walls
- 03 Ceiling repairs after re-roofing and rain intrusion
What framing work includes in Kensington
Light-gauge steel partitions, soffits and ceiling grid, framed to the drawings and coordinated with the trades that follow. For general contractors, this is the gate everything else waits on.
Layout from drawings
Walls set out and snapped, openings and headers confirmed against the door and hardware schedule.
Track, stud and brace
Track fixed, studs stood to spacing, deflection detail at the deck where the structure calls for it.
Backing and blocking
Blocking set for millwork, fixtures and grab bars before close-in, with penetrations dressed where services land.
Board under one licence
Framed and finished by the same crew, so a layout error is ours to fix rather than an argument between subs.
Full detail on method, materials and timelines is on the metal stud framing page.

“This is the third time we’ve used this company to do plaster fixes in our house, and I would use them again.”
“Had a good sized hole in my drywall, Daniel came out same day and had it fixed within an hour.”
