What we handle

The drywall scope, top to bottom.

Most homes in Kalamazoo and Kalamazoo County need drywall work for one of four reasons. We handle all four — and we'll tell you honestly if your situation falls outside what we do.

Patches & Holes

Doorknob blowouts, accidental holes, anchor pull-outs, and old fastener damage. Texture-matched and painted so the patch reads as wall.

  • Holes under 1 sq ft, single visit
  • Larger holes / full sheets, two visits
  • Anchor and fastener cleanup

Cracks & Settling

Hairline cracks at corners, ceiling cracks, and seam-tape failures from settling. Tape, mud, prime, and paint to stop the recurrence.

  • Inside-corner crack repair
  • Ceiling-to-wall seam repair
  • Tape-and-mud failures

Water Damage

Once the source is fixed and the area is dry, we cut out, replace, prime with stain-blocker, texture, and paint. We don't do mold remediation — if we suspect mold, we refer.

  • Ceiling water-stain repair
  • Drywall section replacement
  • Stain-blocking primer included

Texture Matching

Knockdown, orange peel, light splatter, skip-trowel — the common Michigan textures we match every week. Tested on a scrap before going on the wall.

  • Knockdown & orange peel
  • Light splatter & skip-trowel
  • Test patch before finishing

How it works

From damage photo to disappeared repair.

01

Send photos

Text or email a clear photo of the damage. Include something for scale (a quarter, a hand) so we can size the patch from the photo.

02

Written estimate

Smaller repairs usually get a same-day written estimate straight from the photos. Larger or less-clear damage gets a free walkthrough first, with the estimate within 2 business days.

03

We schedule

Once you approve, we book the visit — a real date on the calendar, Mon–Fri 8am–5:30pm, at a time that works for you.

04

Patch, texture, paint

Drop cloths down, dust controlled, repair done, area cleaned. Two-visit jobs return the next day for the second coat and paint.

Drywall repair pricing

Priced per job, in writing, before we start.

No rate sheet and no guesswork — every drywall repair is priced per estimate, fixed-price or hourly depending on the job, based on size, texture complexity, and whether paint blending is included.

Written estimate, any drywall job Free
Smaller repairs (patches, cracks) Same-day estimate
Larger jobs (ceilings, water damage) Within 2 business days
Final invoice matches the estimate unless scope changes mid-job — and we always talk through changes before continuing.
Drywall FAQ

What people ask about drywall repair.

Yes. The most common Michigan textures — knockdown, orange peel, light splatter, and skip-trowel — we match every week. We mix and test the texture on a scrap before applying so the repair blends. For unusual or older textures, we'll do a small test patch first and confirm the match before finishing the rest.
If we paint the patch and feather into the surrounding wall, no. Texture-matched, primed, and painted with a color match — the repair disappears. If you opt for texture-only without paint blending, you'll see a slight color difference where the new texture sits until you repaint. We'll tell you up front which option is right for the wall.
Most patches (under 1 sq ft) are a single half-day visit — we patch, texture, and prime, then come back the next day for paint once the mud is dry. Larger repairs (full sheets, ceiling damage) take a second day for the second coat of mud to cure before we sand and texture. We'll give you the day-by-day on the estimate.
Yes — once the source of the leak is fixed and the area is dry. We replace the damaged section, prime with a stain-blocking primer to lock down any residual stain, then texture and paint. If we suspect mold behind the drywall, we'll stop and refer you to a mold remediation specialist before continuing. We don't do mold remediation ourselves.
Either, depending on what'll blend. For small patches on a wall painted within the last few years, paint-blending the patch is usually invisible. For older walls where the existing paint has faded, repainting the full wall (corner to corner) is the cleaner result. We'll recommend on the estimate based on the wall's age and color.
