Older Twelve Oaks properties sometimes still have original lath and plaster or lime-based walls, which need a different approach to a modern gypsum job. We assess the Twelve Oaks wall build-up on-site before recommending the right system for that particular Twelve Oaks property, boards measured, cut, and screwed into place with staggered joints, creating a strong, level surface ready for jointing and skimming.
