- [Orange Peel Texture](https://olearyenterprisesllc.com/drywall-services/orange-peel-texture/): What is orange peel texture? This type of texture is mainly used on walls throughout most of America. There are many different variations of this texture. It’s a blend of drywall compound mixed with water and then sprayed at high pressure to create the effect that looks very similar to the outside texture of an orange peel. This texture is great for covering up minor imperfections. We apply this texture on many wall repairs and new basement finishes. If you are needing drywall repair or texturing, please give us a call, or contact us through the contact form. Estimates are free
- [Basement Finishing](https://olearyenterprisesllc.com/drywall-services/basement-finishing/): We offer a variety of services to help complete your basement finishing project. The first option is to have us come in and do all of the drywall installation. After that is complete, the taping and mudding process will begin. This stage can take 3-5 days depending on how well the coats of joint compound dry and setup. If it’s during a season of high humidity, it may take a few days longer. The final step is to apply the finishing texture. Typically we do a knockdown texture on the ceilings and an orange peel texture on the walls. Smooth texture
- [Joint Seam Repair](https://olearyenterprisesllc.com/drywall-services/joint-seam-repair/): If you have ceiling or wall damage that appears in a nice straight line and is about 3 inches wide, it is most likely the tape seam that joins two pieces of drywall together. Over time the seams may come loose due to improper installation, exposure to moisture or underlying structure movement.  To remedy this problem, we cut out the old damaged seam and replace it with a new tape joint. We finish the area smooth and then apply a matching texture to the area. This process can usually be completed in a day.  We get a lot of requests for
- [Plaster Repair](https://olearyenterprisesllc.com/drywall-services/plaster-repair/):  If your home was built before the 70’s, there is a good chance that your walls are covered with plaster rather than drywall. Plaster is a hand applied compound mixture that has the consistency of a typical drywall mud and then dries to a hardened surface. The mixture is applied over wooden lathe or wire mesh. The most common issue with plaster is that it separates over time from the lathe or wire mesh. Expanding and contracting structures along with the weight of the plaster is the most common cause for it to crack or fall off in chunks.  Ceilings are
- [Knockdown Texture](https://olearyenterprisesllc.com/drywall-services/knockdown-texture/): Most new homes that have been built in the last 20-30 years have a texture on the ceiling called knockdown texture. It’s a very unique look that is used on ceilings to cover up minor flaws and imperfections. There are a few steps taken to create the knockdown texture effect. The first step is to have the ceiling joints taped and smoothed out with joint compound. After that is complete, some minor sanding is done to smooth out any rough edges.  The next step is to mix the dry texture powder with water to a consistency that is slightly thicker than
- [Ceiling Repair](https://olearyenterprisesllc.com/drywall-services/ceiling-repair/): Have you ever randomly looked up at the ceiling and noticed a spot that doesn’t look right? Have you heard an unusual sound coming from another room, went in to see what it was and had a stream of water coming out of the ceiling? I would venture to say almost every homeowner has had this dreaded experience. Plumbing failures, roof leaks, and overflowing toilets are the three major causes for ceiling damage. Des Moines and the surrounding areas are known for high water hardness and high levels of calcium and magnesium. Over time, copper plumbing can form small erosion holes

More than likely the damage always looks way worse that it actually is. We provide wall repair in the Des Moines metro and can make it look as if your walls were never damaged.
