Frequently asked questions

Should I fix drywall before or after a leak repair?

Always fix the water source and let the cavity dry first. Closing up a wet wall traps moisture and creates a mold problem that costs far more than the drywall.

How long does drywall repair take?

1-3 days including finishing. Permit review and inspection scheduling are usually the largest source of variation.

What changes the price the most?

The largest cost drivers are number and size of patches; ceiling versus wall work; texture matching, including knockdown and popcorn.
