Service Background

Drywall replacement involves more than cut-and-replace. Affected drywall must be removed back to dry framing. Moisture meter readings determine the cut line. Texture matching matters: Houston homes have specific patterns (knockdown, orange peel, popcorn, smooth).

Our scope: moisture meter-mapped demolition, gypsum disposal, replacement drywall (matching original thickness), mudding/taping, sanding, texture matching, primer, paint match.
