"We had a great experience with this drywall repair company. The owner, Trent, and Alan were both extremely professional and took the time to explain the entire process and what to expect. What really stood out was how much care they took to protect our home—they covered everything to keep the space clean while they worked. The finished result was incredible. You honestly can’t tell there was ever any damage there in the first place. The wall looks completely seamless, like the repair never even happened. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing drywall work."

"I had a fantastic experience with The Patch Boys. My AC was leaking, and they efficiently opened the ceiling to access the air ducts for repairs and came back to patch it back up. Tom and his team were professional, thorough, and left the area clean. I highly recommend them for drywall/Sheetrock needs. Great service!"

"- [ ] L&D Painting & Remodeling was excellent from start to finish. They scheduled and came to my house for an estimate very quickly. We were getting our house ready to be put on the market for sale and needed a lot of work done. One of the owners, Leo, personally listened to what we wanted and wasn’t intimidated by a big job. Leo understood what we wanted and was respectful of the fact that we wanted to stay within a stated budget to get the job done. He was honest about what he could and could not do within the budget and made appropriate recommendations to achieve our goals. We had the entire interior and exterior of the house painted, drywall work, ceiling repair, back yard fence repair and stain, carpet laid throughout the house, garage floor epoxy coating, new bathroom and wall fixtures installed, a new screen door and a few other things. L&D Painting & Remodeling handled every aspect of the job professionally and the workmanship was top notch. Additionally, Leo and his staff went over and above, working late into the night, to deliver the completed job in a very short turnaround because we wanted to put our house on the market ASAP. They did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend L&D Painting and Remodeling to anyone who wants fast and quality work at a fair price!!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

There are six levels of drywall finish, from 0 to 5, that refer to the amount of work performed during the finishing process.

Level 0: Drywall is hung with no finishing work.

Level 1: Tape is placed over the seams between drywall sheets.

Level 2: A thin layer of mud is applied over the tape and screw holes. This level is common for utility rooms or walls that will be covered.

Level 3: A full coat of mud covers the screw holes and tape, but the surface is not sanded. This is often used in garages.

Level 4: This is the most common finish for visible interior walls. It involves applying two coats of mud over seams and screw holes, with sanding between each coat, creating a smooth surface ready for flat paint.

Level 5: This is a high-end finish for luxury homes. It includes full taping, mudding, and sanding, plus a final skim coat over the entire surface before painting.

Drywall tape is made of paper, while drywall mesh is made of fiberglass or metal. Drywall mesh patches are suitable for repairing small holes in drywall, while paper drywall tape holds a crease better for corners. You need joint compound to adhere drywall tape to the wall, while mesh patches may be self-adhesive.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

Yes, it is possible to rewire a house without removing the drywall, but this doesn’t work in all homes. You can pull out old wires and insert new ones if you have access to the wiring system via the ceiling or through a crawl space. Some pros can also use a magnetic kit to fish the old wire out of the wall through a hole cavity and install the new wires. Just keep in mind that doing this is less stable than removing drywall, as you won’t be able to staple the wires into the framing.

A post-drywall inspection could uncover many problems that weren’t present during the pre-drywall inspection, including insufficient insulation, missing weather stripping, improperly installed plumbing and lighting fixtures, flooring damage, drywall damage, plumbing leaks, aesthetic issues, and more. Structural problems, which are often expensive to fix and are common reasons to walk away after a home inspection, are easier to see before the drywall goes up, but a post-drywall inspection may highlight minor issues with house settling and foundation problems.
