Can you match the existing wall texture?

Yes! We specialize in matching textures like smooth, knockdown, and orange peel.

For small repairs, we can often work around furniture. For larger areas, moving items helps us provide the best results.

What materials do you use for repairs?

We use high-quality drywall panels, lightweight joint compounds, and professional primers to ensure long-lasting results.

Are your repairs waterproof?

While standard drywall is not waterproof, we use moisture-resistant panels in kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms to prevent recurring damage.

Can you help with painting after drywall repair?

Yes, we integrate painting into the repair process or coordinate with local paint professionals to ensure perfect blending.

Maintaining consistent indoor humidity and addressing leaks quickly reduces cracks. Our repairs also include proper taping and feathering to minimize re-cracking.
