What we see in Everett

The Everett drywall pattern is unusual. Three things shape it: the Boeing payroll cycle, the Naval Station Everett housing rotation, and the mill-era housing stock. Each creates a distinct repair signature.

1. Bayside + Port Gardner moisture. The marine layer is real. Homes within 8-10 blocks of the waterfront average 4-6% higher interior humidity year-round, which shows up as bathroom and kitchen ceiling stains around vent fan housings. We see this concentrated in Riverside, Bayside, and the streets west of Rucker Ave. Tier Small or Medium fits most.
2. Riverside + Bayside 1920s-1940s mill cottages. Original plaster underneath, drywall hung over the top during the 1970s and early 1980s remodel wave. The seam where new drywall meets old plaster lath cracks first — usually above doorways. We see this in Norton, Riverside, and Bayside cottages weekly.
3. Silver Lake newer construction (1990s onward). Standard orange peel texture. Typical settling cracks at year 3-7, especially in homes built on the old Silver Lake fill. Tier Small standard.
4. Pinehurst hillside ranchers. Slope settle produces vertical wall cracks that show up year 5-10. The fix is a Tier Small to Medium+ patch; if cracks keep returning, the foundation needs an engineer, not a drywaller.
5. South Everett townhomes + Navy housing rotation. Naval Station Everett housing turns over every 2-3 years. We get a small wave of move-out patch work each summer — door-knob holes, picture-hanging holes, kid’s bedroom impact damage. Always Tier Small. PCS-related work pays C.O.D. against an LES, not Net 14.

What drives the price

1. Patch count, not patch size. A 6-inch hole and a fist-sized hole are the same tier.
2. Texture type. Mostly orange peel in newer Everett construction, knockdown in 1980s tract homes. Both baseline.
3. Paint blend. Optional add, 2.0x to 2.5x tier price. Most Everett jobs do not need it because the texture match alone is invisible from across the room.
4. Insulation replacement. Water-damaged ceiling with soaked fiberglass insulation = separate line at $1.10/sq ft.
