What affects the price

Drywall projects vary based on a few main factors. The total square footage, the height of your ceilings, and the level of finish required—like smooth wall versus textured—are the biggest drivers. If your walls have significant water damage or require mold remediation, that adds complexity. Accessibility also matters; tight corners or areas requiring scaffolding take more time than open rooms. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

A patch is the fix for holes, dents, or accidental damage in your existing walls. Whether it is a small doorknob impact or a larger area where plumbing work was performed, we cut out the damaged section and install a fresh piece of material. We then tape, mud, and sand the area to blend it into the surrounding texture. You need this when you want to restore your wall to its original state without replacing the entire sheet.

Frequently asked in St. Paul

What is Level 5 drywall finish?

Level 5 drywall finish is the highest level of finish, involving a skim coat of joint compound over the entire surface of the drywall. This creates an exceptionally smooth and uniform surface, ideal for high-gloss paints or critical lighting conditions where imperfections would be highly visible. It's a meticulous process that requires significant skill to achieve perfectly. Professionals ensure this highest standard when needed.

What are the standard drywall thicknesses?

Drywall is commonly available in thicknesses of 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch, 1/2 inch, and 5/8 inch. The 1/2 inch thickness is the most standard for walls and ceilings in residential construction. Thicker panels, like 5/8 inch, are often used for increased fire resistance (Type X) or enhanced sound dampening. The specialists can help you choose the right thickness for your project in St. Paul.

What is a drywall pole sander used for?

A drywall pole sander is an essential tool for efficiently sanding large drywall surfaces, ceilings, and high walls. It attaches to an extension pole, allowing for greater reach and leverage. This tool helps achieve a smooth, even finish over taped seams and joint compound, reducing the physical strain compared to hand sanding. Professionals rely on them for consistent results.

What are drywall stilts used for?

Drywall stilts, also known as compound stilts or drywall boots, are worn by professionals to increase their height. They are used primarily for hanging and finishing drywall on high walls and ceilings. Stilts allow workers to reach elevated areas without the need for scaffolding or ladders, improving efficiency and safety on the job. They are a specialized tool for experienced drywall finishers.

What causes a drywall bulge?

A drywall bulge can occur for several reasons, often related to moisture. Water damage can cause the gypsum core to expand or the paper to delaminate. Improper installation, such as inadequate fastening or using the wrong adhesive, can also lead to bulging. Sometimes, structural movement within the building can put stress on the drywall, causing it to deform. Identifying the cause is crucial for a lasting repair.

What is drywall corner bead?

Drywall corner bead is a strip of metal, vinyl, or paper-backed metal used to protect and reinforce outside corners of walls. It's applied to the corner and then covered with joint compound, creating a sharp, durable edge. Inside corners are typically finished with tape and compound. Proper corner finishing is essential for a professional look and to prevent damage.

What is sheetrock?

Sheetrock is a brand name for drywall manufactured by the United States Gypsum Company. It's a common building material consisting of a gypsum plaster core sandwiched between two layers of paper. The term 'sheetrock' is often used interchangeably with 'drywall' in everyday conversation. When you need drywall services in St. Paul, the specialists will be working with these materials.
