Drywall Installation
At Thor McAndrew Construction, drywall installation has been at the heart of our business for decades. Established in 1998 by our father, Thor McAndrew, who began his drywall career back in 1978, we’ve spent our lives learning the trade from the ground up. Now operated by brothers Cody and Erik, our local drywall company continues to carry forward the high standards and values our dad instilled: craftsmanship, professionalism, and treating every customer like family. As locally trusted drywall contractors, we take pride in delivering clean, consistent results in both residential and commercial spaces across Southern California.
Built on Precision and Code Compliance
Our drywall installation process is guided by a strict commitment to California building codes. Every panel is carefully cut, with all holes made square to ensure easier patching and a cleaner finish. We don’t cut corners, which means backing is added where needed, and every sheet is properly screwed to framing in compliance with state regulations. This attention to structural detail lays the foundation for walls that are stable, long-lasting, and ready for finishing.
Seamless Taping and Finishing
Installing drywall isn’t just about hanging sheets - it’s about creating a smooth, seamless surface that blends into the space. It’s the finishing work that transforms a bare wall into something clean, crisp, and ready for paint or texture. We tape all joints, screws, and angles with a minimum of three coats, resulting in a surface that's smooth and durable. We also offer a full range of texture options, including orange peel, knockdown, hand-applied textures, and a flawless level 5 smooth finish. With the highest quality tools, most advanced techniques, and premium materials, we give every project a professional-grade outcome.
Insulation and Framing Support
Drywall installation isn’t complete without proper insulation in exterior walls and ceilings. We make it a priority to ensure the correct type of insulation is in place, which helps regulate indoor temperatures, reduce noise transfer, and improve overall energy efficiency. A well-insulated wall system enhances comfort while also supporting the long-term performance of the drywall itself. In addition, we handle minor framing work as needed to create a clean, level surface and confirm that everything is properly backed and supported. These extra steps reflect our commitment to doing things the right way from the very start. No matter the size or scope of your project, we’re here to provide drywall installation that’s done with care, built to last, and finished to impress.
