Milton's mix of historic downtown properties and newer developments requires a nuanced approach to wall repair. Whether you're dealing with settling cracks in an older Broadkill River home or need seamless patching in a newer subdivision, KD Drywall N Paint provides expert drywall repair tailored to Milton's specific housing styles.
Many of Milton's older homes feature original plaster or early drywall methods. Repairing these walls requires more than just standard spackle. We use Zinsser Gardz — a penetrating primer that hardens and seals soft, chalky, or deteriorated surfaces — along with FibaFuse, a fiberglass mat tape that embeds into joint compound to reinforce seams, to bridge the gap between old plaster and new drywall, ensuring the repair holds through the natural settling that comes with seasonal temperature shifts.

A few local facts about the community we serve.
Milton is one of the oldest towns in Sussex County, first settled by English colonists in 1672 along the Broadkill River. The town was known as "Head of Broadkill" for over a century before being renamed in 1807.
In the 1800s, Milton was a significant shipbuilding center. The Broadkill River provided the water access and timber supply that made the town a hub for constructing schooners and other vessels. Several of the older homes in Milton's historic district were built during this prosperous era.
Milton's historic district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982, recognizing the architectural significance of its 19th-century homes and commercial buildings.
