Cracks, nail pops, or an unexpected water leak can turn pristine interiors into eyesores. In Billings, MT, temperature swings and low winter humidity put extra stress on residential drywall, making timely repairs essential. CountBricks delivers fast, code-compliant fixes backed by AI-precise estimates and a crew that treats your home like their own.
• Extreme cold and dry air shrink framing lumber, opening joints and causing tape lines to separate
• Summer humidity reverses the cycle, leading to blistering and bubbling finishes
• Untreated cracks let conditioned air escape, driving up energy bills
• Moisture-damaged boards can foster mold growth behind walls
CountBricks’ voice-enabled mobile app listens while our estimator walks your project. Every dimension, material note, and labor task is captured hands-free and converted into a detailed scope before we leave your driveway.
Our platform links directly to regional suppliers, updating sheetrock, mud, tape, and texture costs every hour. That means no guesswork and no price-escalation surprises.
We apply standardized Montana labor rates, travel time, and crew efficiency factors vetted by local trade associations. You see the math line by line—no black boxes.
