Best Drywall Taping in Ottawa
Renos. Solutions offer professional drywall taping services in Ottawa, which result in flawless ceilings and walls with no visible seams. Drywall tape plays an essential role in the installation of drywall and the repair of drywall. It's applied by putting mudding for drywall over joints between the newly-installed drywall panels or other areas that need to be fixed. Drywall taping can appear to be an easy task, but getting an impeccable finish requires skill and expertise in using appropriate techniques and tools, as well as equipment for drywall taping. Our drywall taper contractors are experts at creating smooth surfaces ready for drywall sanding and finishing.
Drywall tape is embedded into the drywall mud to form an adhesive between the adjacent panels of the drywall. While this type of bond does not significantly strengthen the structural integrity of drywall, it can limit the movement of the drywall, which can lead to cracking. If drywall tape wasn't used, the joint cement would be visible once it dried. One of the main reasons many DIY drywall projects fail is that amateurs overlook the importance of taping in concealing seams and joints - essential for a perfect finish.
The application of the drywall tape assists in joining the adjacent sheets of the drywall. This process requires paper or fiberglass tape and also requires a lot of focus on detail. The choice of tape is different depending on the task, but our team is familiar with both kinds of tape. It is essential to comprehend the nuances of the tape-making process.
• Paper Tape
Paper tape is not adhesive and, therefore, must be applied using the help of a drywall compound adhesive. This is why it is essential to apply it in a smooth and even manner as you can. Neglecting this aspect could result in "tape bubbles." Bubbles can appear across the top of the finished wall and create an unattractive appearance. Our experts in drywall have many years of experience and can guarantee the highest quality finish to your ceilings and walls.
• Fiber Glass Tape
This type of drywalling tape can be described as a self-adhesive kind of tape. It can be used without the need for a drywall adhesive. Its status as a self-adhesive means that an easier process will be achieved. While fiberglass tape is typically more efficient, however, there are certain applications that require paper tape, like a 90-degree aspect on walls that requires an extremely clear finish to be obtained. We will always employ fiberglass tape whenever possible in order to ensure that we finish your project in time and within your budget.
