Professional drywall installation, finishing and repair for residential projects large and small.
Falis Construction handles drywall projects ranging from focused wall and ceiling repairs to new drywall installation for basements, remodels, additions and other residential spaces.
Services may include hanging, replacement, taping, mudding, finishing, texture repair or matching, ceiling work and painting coordination where included in the project.
The most common full-room drywall work we do, usually as part of a wider finishing project where the drywall stage sits between rough trades and flooring.
Staining or a sagging ceiling means locating the source first. Repairing the surface without resolving the cause produces a repair that fails again in the same place.
Knockdown, orange peel and hand textures all behave differently, and a patch that does not match is more conspicuous than the damage was. Matching is technique, not a product.
Recurring cracks above doors or at wall junctions can be ordinary seasonal movement — Minnesota humidity swings are large — or a sign of something structural. Worth distinguishing before repairing repeatedly.
Yes. Focused repairs — a single patch, a ceiling repair or a damaged wall section — are welcome, alongside larger drywall installations.
Localized damage in otherwise sound board is a repair. Widespread water damage, board that has been wet and lost integrity, or a wall with a history of repeated failed patches is usually better replaced — a fresh sheet finishes better than an accumulation of patches, and often costs less than trying to save it.
In most cases. Bring us close-up photos with the estimate request and we can tell you what we are dealing with. Some hand-applied textures from older Twin Cities homes are genuinely difficult to match seamlessly, and where that is true we will say so rather than promise an invisible repair and deliver a visible one.
Yes — painting after finishing is part of what we offer, and it is usually the sensible way to run it. Fresh joint compound needs priming to avoid flashing, where the patched areas read differently from the surrounding paint even in the same color.
Joint compound needs time and the right conditions between coats, and there are normally three. In a Minnesota winter, an unheated basement or garage will not cure properly without temporary heat and air movement — so cold-weather scheduling includes conditioning the space rather than simply working colder.
Interior painting, exterior painting, wall coverings and the interior finish packages that complete a project.
Finishing unfinished basements, remodeling finished spaces, and coordinating the construction details that help make the lower level functional and complete.
Rough framing through finish carpentry — walls, floors, roofs, basements, additions, trim, stairs and built-ins.
Hardwood, engineered wood, luxury vinyl plank, laminate and tile — installation, replacement and the subfloor work underneath.
Residential construction, remodeling and home improvements across the Twin Cities metro and surrounding communities.
