What we handle

Drywall Installation

New walls and ceilings hung, taped, and finished smooth and square.

Patch & Repair

Holes, cracks, and dings patched and blended so they disappear.

Texture Matching

Knockdown, orange peel, or smooth — we match the existing texture seamlessly.

Popcorn Ceiling Removal

Remove dated popcorn ceilings and refinish for a clean, modern look.

Water-Damage Repair

Cut out damaged board, address the cause, and rebuild it like new.

Framing Repair

Repair or rebuild framing behind the drywall so the fix lasts.

Why It Lasts

Done right the first time

A good drywall repair is one you can't find afterward. We feather every patch, match the surrounding texture, and prime so the wall paints out evenly — no telegraphing, no obvious patch.
From a single nail-pop to whole rooms after water damage, we keep dust controlled, clean up daily, and leave walls ready for paint. Licensed, bonded, and insured.

FAQ

Drywall & Texture questions

How long does drywall repair take?

Small patches can be done in a single visit, though texture and paint may need a day to dry between steps. Larger repairs after water damage take longer — we'll give you a clear timeline up front.

Can you match my existing wall texture?

Yes. Texture matching is our specialty — knockdown, orange peel, smooth, or hand textures. The goal is a repair you can't pick out from the original wall.

Do you remove popcorn ceilings?

Yes. We remove popcorn (acoustic) ceilings, refinish them smooth or with a modern texture, and protect your floors and fixtures while we work.

Can you fix drywall after a water leak?

Yes. We cut out the damaged board, make sure the area is dry, repair any framing, then re-hang, texture, and prime so it's ready to paint.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes — licensed, bonded, and insured under CA Contractor's License #1008509.
