New drywall for Tumwater additions, ADUs and remodels

We hang and finish board on drywall installation jobs across Tumwater, from additions and ADUs to remodels and new rooms, finishing it to the texture or paint you've chosen. You get one crew from bare studs to walls ready for the painter, on a quote that lists every wall and ceiling.

Install drywall with the finished room in mind

New and renovated rooms can have different board, backing, opening, and finish requirements. When installation ends at bare sheets, seams, texture, smooth finishing, and primer preparation may be left for a separate handoff.

Solis installs drywall from the drawings and wall conditions, then carries board through taping and the selected finish. Connecting installation with finishing leaves the walls ready for their next preparation and coating work.

  • Board installation follows drawings and wall conditions.
  • Taping and selected finish carried with the installation.

Lay out each wall and ceiling before board work

We plan the board around doors, windows, soffits and corners so joints land where they're easiest to hide and every edge has framing behind it. If an electrician or plumber still needs into a wall, we leave it open and come back.

Choose board and finish from the project documents

Your plans set the board type: moisture-resistant in baths, rated where a wall calls for it. The finish level is a separate choice. GA-214 Level 4 suits most painted rooms; Level 5 adds a skim for gloss paint or strong side light. We list board and finish on separate lines so you can see each.
