Drywall Repair and Installation
We repair holes, cracks, water damage, and settling seams, and we install new drywall for additions, converted rooms, and walls opened up during plumbing or electrical work. For installation, we measure and cut sheets to fit studs on 16- or 24-inch centers, screw them at proper spacing, and stagger joints to reduce future cracking.
Basement Drywall Installation
We install moisture-resistant board in humid areas and cement board where tile will go. Before hanging, we confirm framing is straight, insulation is in place, and electrical and plumbing rough-ins have passed inspection. A small gap at the floor line prevents board from wicking moisture off the slab. Ductwork, support columns, and mechanical equipment are framed with soffits and access panels, keeping shutoffs and clean outs reachable after the walls are closed.
Garage Drywall Installation
We install and finish this board correctly, sealing penetrations and taping joints so the assembly performs as intended. Many homeowners finish garages for storage, workshops, or gym conversions. We hang and tape full walls and ceilings, box out water heaters and electrical panels, and finish to a level that accepts paint. For unconditioned garages, we discuss insulation options with you before board goes up, since adding it later means opening the walls again.
Ceiling Repair
We confirm the source is addressed, then cut out compromised board back to sound framing. Water-stained drywall is replaced, not painted over, since saturation weakens the gypsum core. We also remove popcorn ceilings and refinish with a smooth or knockdown texture, reattach or re-hang sagging ceilings, and blend texture patches across the full plane so repairs aren't visible under overhead light.
Sheet Rock Repair
Sheetrock is a brand of gypsum board, and repairs are our daily work. Common issues include doorknob punctures, corner bead dents, popped screws and nails, separated tape at wall-to-ceiling joints, and hairline cracks above door and window headers. Popped fasteners are removed (not hammered back), re-screwed a few inches away, and coated. Loose tape is cut out, not covered, so repairs don't reopen. Patches are sanded flat and blended into the existing texture, ready for primer and paint.
Drywall Finishing
Finishing determines how a wall looks under paint, and we tape, mud, and sand to the level appropriate for each room. We use paper tape on flat seams and inside corners for strength, and metal or vinyl bead on outside corners. Each coat is allowed to dry fully before the next is applied, then sanded with dustless equipment that pulls debris into a vacuum instead of into the room. We also match existing textures, including knockdown, orange peel, and hand-troweled patterns.
Our remodeling work includes:
- Closing walls after kitchen and bathroom renovations
- Patching where cabinets, soffits, or partition walls have been removed
- Building arches, niches, and tray ceilings
- Framing and finishing new closets and room dividers
- Repairing openings left by relocated outlets, vents, and light fixtures
Home Remodeling Drywall
Matching old to new is the hardest part of remodel work. Older Wylie homes often have textures that are no longer standard, so we sample the existing surface and reproduce it by hand where a spray application would not blend.
We also handle load transitions where an opening has been widened, finishing around new headers and posts so framing changes are not visible in the finished wall.
Commercial Drywall Services
Warehouse and Industrial Facilities
We install abuse-resistant and impact-resistant panels in corridors, break rooms, and office build-outs adjoining open storage areas, and build 1-hour and 2-hour rated assemblies using Type X gypsum board with proper firestopping at conduit, sprinkler line, and ductwork penetrations. Crews frame and hang board on metal studs above 12 feet using appropriate bracing and deflection track. Finishing is typically Level 2 or Level 3 in utility areas, keeping costs reasonable where appearance is secondary.
Office Buildings
We deliver Level 4 and Level 5 finishes in conference rooms, lobbies, and executive areas, where LED lighting and light paint expose every imperfection. For acoustics, we install sound-rated partitions with resilient channel, stud-cavity insulation, and acoustical sealant at the perimeter, with demising walls extending deck-to-deck rather than stopping at the ceiling grid. We handle tenant improvement work in phases, including after-hours scheduling, so occupied floors stay operational during demolition and re-framing.
Retail Stores and Shopping Centers
We coordinate with general contractors, electricians, and fixture installers to keep drywall from becoming the bottleneck, installing blocking for heavy shelving and display hardware before the board goes up. Storefront demising walls between tenants require fire-rated construction carried to the roof deck — we handle the rated assembly, firestopping, and inspection documentation. For ceilings, we build soffits, bulkheads, and drywall clouds that conceal ductwork while defining zones within an open floor plan.
Restaurants and Food Service
We install moisture- and mold-resistant gypsum board in food handling zones, along with cement board behind tile and stainless wall panels, finished smooth and non-porous per health department requirements to accept epoxy paint or FRP panels without texture that traps residue. Dining rooms need different treatment — we build acoustic partitions and drywall ceiling features that reduce noise reflection in spaces with hard flooring and open kitchens.
Hotels and Hospitality
Here's a tighter version at 73 words:
Guest room walls use STC-rated assemblies — staggered or double-stud construction, cavity insulation, sealed perimeters — for noise control between units and corridors. Corridors and stairwells meet fire-rated requirements with Type X board, shaft liner, and matched firestopping. Lobbies, bars, and event spaces feature curved walls, coffered ceilings, and archways, finished to Level 5 where lighting demands. Renovations in occupied hotels use dust control, phased scheduling, and dustless sanding.
Medical and Health Care Facilities
Exam and treatment rooms need sound-rated partitions built to deck height, with insulation and acoustical caulking at all edges and penetrations. Imaging rooms may require lead-lined gypsum board, lead-lined fasteners, and batten strips, placed per the physicist's shielding specification. Clinical surfaces get Level 4 and Level 5 finishes with no texture for routine disinfection. Renovations in operating facilities follow ICRA containment protocols, including negative-pressure barriers and HEPA filtration when required.

Educational Facilities
We install abuse- and impact-resistant gypsum board in corridors, gymnasiums, cafeterias, and classrooms, where standard board shows damage within a year. We build acoustically rated partitions between classrooms and corridors, plus drywall ceiling assemblies that work with acoustic treatments, and construct fire-rated corridors, stairwells, and mechanical rooms to the specified assembly, documented for inspection. Most projects run during summer breaks, holidays, or after-hours windows, phased around the district's calendar.

What Our Expert Drywall Services Involve
We begin with an on-site assessment and a free estimate, measuring the area and identifying the cause of any damage before quoting.
Next comes preparation: covering floors and furniture, and cutting out damaged sections back to solid framing.
From there, our steps are consistent:
- Hanging — board is fastened square to studs with tight seams.
- Taping — paper or mesh tape is embedded in joint compound at seams and corners.
- Mudding — two to three coats, each feathered wider than the last.
- Sanding — dustless sanding equipment keeps airborne debris down.
- Texture matching — knockdown, orange peel, popcorn, or smooth Level 5, blended to the existing surface.
What Determines the Coast of a Drywall Project?
Square footage is the starting point, but it rarely tells the whole story. We price each job based on the amount of board hung, the number of seams and corners, and the finish level you need.
Coast Factor Typical Impact
-Wall and ceiling square footage -Base labor and material calculation
-Ceiling height (9 ft, 10 ft, vaulted) -10 - 25% increase for staging and lifts
-Finish level (Level 3 vs. Level 5) - Level 5 adds roughly $0.50 - $1.00 per sq ft
-Texture type (knockdown, orange peel, smooth) - Smooth finishes cost more than sprayed texture
-Access and job site conditions - Occupied homes require masking and dust control
-Ceilings cost more than walls because sheets must be lifted, held, and fastened overhead

Yes. We provide free estimates on both repair and installation projects.
For most jobs, we look at the work area, measure the square footage or damaged section, and confirm the finish level you need before quoting a price. You can reach us at (469) 949-2871 or submit a request through our contact page. Our office hours are Monday through Friday, 6 AM to 8 PM.
We repair all of these. Common jobs include door-knob holes, nail pops, stress cracks above door frames, and seam separation caused by settling. Water damage requires a different approach. We cut back to dry, sound material, replace the affected board, and re-tape the joints so the patch does not telegraph through the paint later.
Ceiling repairs include sagging panels, stained sections after a roof or plumbing leak, and popcorn removal followed by a new finish.
Timelines depend on square footage, the number of coats required, and drying conditions.
- Small patch or single hole: often completed in one visit, though joint compound may need to dry overnight before final sanding
- Single room installation: roughly 2 to 4 days from hanging through final sanding
- Whole-home or large commercial project: typically 1 to 2 weeks, scheduled in phases
Humidity affects how quickly joint compound cures, so we build drying time into every schedule rather than rushing a coat.
Yes. We tape, mud, and sand to the finish level your project calls for, including Level 5 finishes for walls that will receive gloss paint or heavy side lighting. Our texture work covers knockdown, orange peel, hand-troweled, and smooth finishes. We also match existing textures on repair jobs so the patched area blends with the surrounding surface.
We use dustless sanding on interior repairs to limit cleanup in occupied homes and businesses.
We carry insurance for the residential and commercial work we perform, and we can provide documentation before a project starts. Texas does not issue a statewide drywall contractor license, but we comply with applicable local permitting and building requirements in Wylie and Collin County. Our workmanship is backed by a warranty, and we are glad to answer questions about coverage during your estimate.
