Drywall Repair in Garland, Rowlett and Rockwall, TX

Drywall damage happens in every house: a doorknob through the wall, anchors pulled out when a TV comes down, a crack over a door frame, or nail pops that show up as the house settles. The patch is the easy part. Blending the texture so you cannot see it afterward is where the skill is.

Most homes in east DFW have orange peel or knockdown texture on walls and ceilings. We patch, sand, and match the texture, then prime so the spot is ready for paint. We can paint in the same project if you have the paint or the color name.

What affects the cost

Size of the hole. Small patches are quick; large holes need new drywall and more drying time.
Number of spots. Several patches in one visit are more efficient.
Texture. Smooth walls show more; heavy texture takes more care to match.
Ceilings. Ceiling work is slower and messier.
Drying time. Mud needs to dry between coats. Larger repairs may take a second visit.
Paint. Spot paint rarely blends perfectly. Painting the whole wall gives the best result.

How to prepare

Photograph each damaged spot with something for scale.
Find leftover paint, or the color name and sheen, if you want us to paint.
Move furniture and wall hangings away from the area.
If there was a leak, make sure it is fixed first.
Plan for some dust; we cover the floor and clean up.
Keep pets and kids out of the work area while mud dries.

What is not included

Water leak repairs (a plumber fixes the leak first)
Mold remediation
Full room drywall hanging or full ceiling texture
Popcorn ceiling removal (older ceilings can contain asbestos and need testing)

Texas and DFW notes

Settling cracks

Expansive clay soil under many east DFW homes can lead to small cracks over doors and windows. We repair them, and we will mention it if a crack looks like it is part of a bigger pattern.

Older homes

Homes built before the 1980s may have joint compound or textures that contain asbestos. If a home is that old and the repair means sanding large areas, testing first is the safe choice.

Common questions

Will the patch be invisible?

We match texture closely. Paint is the other half. Painting the whole wall gives the best blend.

Can you match my texture?

Usually, yes. Orange peel and knockdown are common in the area.

How long does a repair take?

Small patches can be done in one visit. Large holes need drying time between coats and may need a second visit.

Do you paint the patch?

Yes, if you have paint or the color name. See paint touch-ups.

The crack keeps coming back. Why?

Seasonal soil movement can reopen cracks. We tape them properly, but recurring cracks may be a sign to have the foundation checked.

Can you fix water-damaged drywall?

Yes, after the leak is fixed and the area is dry. We do not fix plumbing leaks.
