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

Also known as Type X, this board is engineered with glass fibers and a denser core to slow the spread of fire. Building codes often require it in garages, furnace rooms, or between apartments. You need this installed if you are renovating these specific high-risk areas to meet safety standards. Because these boards are heavier and harder to cut, installation typically carries a higher labor rate; exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Frequently asked in St. Paul

What causes bulging drywall and how can it be fixed?

Bulging drywall often stems from moisture behind the panel or loose fasteners. The repair process involves identifying and rectifying the root cause, then cutting out the damaged section. A new piece is installed, taped, and covered with joint compound. The specialist you'll speak with will determine the best approach.

How do I spackle small holes in drywall?

To spackle small holes in drywall, clean the area, apply a small amount of spackle with a putty knife, smoothing it flush with the wall. Allow it to dry completely, then sand it smooth. A second light coat might be needed for larger holes. The crew that comes out has the expertise for a perfect finish. They ensure the spackle blends seamlessly.

What's the best way to patch a hole in drywall?

Patching a hole in drywall depends on its size. Small holes can be filled with spackle. For larger holes, use a self-adhesive mesh patch or a piece of drywall cut to fit. The patch is then covered with multiple thin layers of joint compound, sanded smooth between coats. The specialist you'll speak with will choose the most effective method for your specific hole.

What are the different drywall finishes?

Drywall finishes vary in smoothness, from Level 1 (basic) to Level 5 (highest quality). Level 3 is suitable for light textures, Level 4 for most paint and light textures, and Level 5 for high-gloss paints or critical lighting. The crew that comes out will discuss options based on your desired paint and aesthetic. They ensure a surface ready for your chosen finish.

What is 1/2 drywall typically used for?

Half-inch drywall is the standard for most interior walls and ceilings in residential construction. It provides a good balance of durability and ease of handling. Thicker drywall, like 5/8 inch, is often used for fire-rated walls or areas requiring increased sound insulation. The specialist you'll speak with can confirm the appropriate thickness for your project's needs.

What is drywall hole repair?

Drywall hole repair is the process of fixing damage to drywall panels, such as dents, cracks, or punctures. It involves cleaning the area, applying joint compound and tape or a patch, and then sanding it smooth. The crew that comes out has the skills to make these repairs virtually invisible. They ensure the wall looks like new.

What is all-purpose drywall mud?

All-purpose drywall mud is a versatile joint compound suitable for various tasks, including taping drywall seams, filling screw holes, and applying textured finishes. It offers good adhesion and is sandable once dry. The specialist you'll speak with will use the appropriate compound for your specific repair or installation. They ensure a smooth, durable finish.
