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

Primer is the base coat applied to fresh drywall or patches before you add your final paint color. Because drywall is porous, it soaks up paint unevenly. Primer seals the surface so your finish paint looks consistent and sticks properly. You need this step whenever new compound or drywall is exposed. It prevents the paint from looking flat or blotchy. We use high-quality primer to ensure the finish color is true to what you picked for your home.

Frequently asked in St. Paul

Is there a difference between drywall and sheetrock?

Sheetrock is actually a brand name for drywall, so they're often used interchangeably. Think of it like 'Kleenex' for tissues. In St. Paul homes, you'll find both terms used, but the material itself is gypsum board. Pros know the exact materials needed for your specific project, whether it's a new build in a developing area or a repair in an older neighborhood.

Can I do drywall myself?

Mistakes can be costly to fix later. Pros in St. Paul have the tools and experience to get it done right the first time, saving you frustration and ensuring quality results. It’s often worth the investment for a perfect look.

How much does 1000 sq ft of drywall cost?
Is drywall soundproof?

Standard drywall offers some sound dampening, but it's not truly soundproof. For better sound insulation in your St. Paul home, especially in shared living spaces or home theaters, pros can discuss specialized drywall options. These can significantly reduce noise transfer between rooms. Ask about soundproofing solutions when you call.

How much should a drywall repair cost?
Can you repair damaged drywall?
