Corner & Seam Crack Repair

Corner bead and drywall seam crack repair in Utah County and Salt Lake County. Failing corner bead and seam tape lifting fixed. Call (720) 885-2838.

About This Service

Corner cracks — along exterior corners, inside corners, and wall-to-ceiling joints — result from impact damage to corner bead, failing original tape, or ongoing settling movement. A cracked or dented corner bead can't be fixed with compound alone: we replace damaged bead, re-tape failing seams, and apply compound to create corners that are sharp, straight, and crack-resistant.

Our Process

01

Diagnose the Source

We determine whether the crack is from a damaged corner bead, failed tape, or ongoing movement.

02

Remove Failing Material

Damaged corner bead or lifted tape is removed back to a solid substrate.

03

Install New Bead or Tape

New metal or vinyl corner bead is installed and secured, or fresh tape is embedded in compound.

04

Compound & Sand

Multiple coats of compound are applied and feathered to match the original profile.

05

Texture & Paint

Matching texture applied and paint blended — the corner looks factory-new.

Corner & Seam Crack Repair — Frequently Asked Questions

Exterior wall corners use metal or vinyl corner bead that is nailed or screwed to the framing — if the bead shifts from impact or settling, the compound over it cracks. Inside corners and wall-ceiling joints use paper or fiberglass tape that can lift if it wasn't properly embedded in the original application. We fix both by removing the failed material and starting fresh.

Yes. If an exterior corner was dented by furniture or impact, the metal bead beneath may be bent. We remove the damaged section, install new bead, and compound to the original sharp profile — on completion the corner will be arrow-straight.

Corner repairs typically take 1–3 hours depending on the length and number of corners affected. If we're replacing a full floor-to-ceiling corner bead it's toward the higher end, but most corner repairs are completed same-day including texture and paint.
