Expert Drywall Finishing in New Albany, OH

Drywall finishing is the work that turns raw walls and ceilings into smooth, paint-ready surfaces. At PKC Custom Painting, we handle taping, mudding, feathering, and final sanding for rooms of all sizes in New Albany homes. Whether you are repairing a patched section or finishing a newly drywalled room, the result needs to be flat and consistent before any paint goes on. New Albany carries a large share of older housing stock, with many homes built before 1970. Walls in these homes often show settling cracks, uneven patches, or layers of old repairs that need proper prep before painting. We work through each surface carefully, building up coats, sanding between passes, and checking for flaws under raking light. The goal is a wall that holds paint evenly and looks clean from any angle. If you are getting ready to repaint or have just had drywall work done, call PKC Custom Painting to schedule your finishing visit in New Albany.

Drywall finishing includes taping seams, applying and feathering joint compound, and sanding each coat to a smooth surface. We check the wall under raking light to catch any low spots or ridges before we stop.

Yes, we finish both walls and ceilings throughout New Albany homes. Ceilings are checked carefully because imperfections are more visible under overhead lighting.

If you can see tape lines, cracks, or uneven patches, the surface needs finishing work before paint. Shine a flashlight at a low angle across the wall and any high or low spots will stand out clearly.

PKC Painting does great work! All work we need done has to be done after hours. His team has always accommodated our schedules. I highly recommend him for any project!

This is the 2nd time we have worked with Justin and the same crew of painters. They did our HardiePlank ranch last summer, that has a lot of trim that needed caulked as well. . So we definitely could not wait to get them for some inside work. They painted 3 bathrooms, a guest bedroom, a small hallway and a two story mudroom with switchback staircases. Additionally, we had a lot of cracks in our baseboards and woodwork where settling had taken place over the years. We initially asked them to caulk and touch up. But with council from Justin we realized that our 8 year old paint and new touchup spots would really not give us the finished vision we were expecting. Setting expectations is something he does well. In the end we opted for a new quote for total repair and repaint of all woodwork in the rooms they were painting, all mudroom wood work and stairs and added our main great room and office to the woodwork job. OMG! We are beyond thrilled with the end result. Our home looks brand new. What these folks do with a caulk gun and paint is work of art! With this crew you get respectful painters that are skilled in their trade. They prep, never cut corners and recheck their work to make sure it is a quality finish before they clean up. Also, Josue will point out things he can fix for very little up charge. He fixed a corner of a ceiling that had some minor water damage and some holes behind 4 pillars that the builders assumed we would never see. These were not things he was painting but things he noticed and thought we might want repaired. We did and are so happy we took council and suggestions. Cheaper to do things while they are here than to piece the work out. Thank you PKC, Justin and Josue. We will be back! More painting in our future.

Great painters. Very neat. Cleaned up after.Justin was able to accommodate our timeline for painting before we moved. Will definitely use them again.

Justin and his team were great to work with! They were easy to communicate with, quick to answer any questions I had, and SO efficient with maintaining top notch quality. They were fair in their pricing and took the time to explain everything start to finish. We will definitely be using them again for our future painting projects! We’re so happy with the outcome of our home!

I’ve can’t say enough great things about Justin and his crews. The painted the exterior of my home and the kitchen cabinets. They also sanded and stained our office building. I’m so happy that they are coming back to paint the kitchen. Everyone was so nice, they showed up on time and worked very hard. It’s hard to find amazing people and they are the best. Will definitely continue to use them for future projects.
