Β·Β  Drywall

Drywall done right, before the paint goes on.

Hole patches, water damage, settling cracks, ceiling repair, and full-room drywall hangs. The same crew that does the drywall does the painting β€” so the seams disappear under the topcoat.

Drywall Service

The repair that most painters won't touch.

Walk into any Denver hardware store on a Saturday and you'll find homeowners buying drywall mud, mesh tape, and 8-foot sheets, hoping a YouTube video and a weekend will be enough. Sometimes it is. More often the patch ends up visible β€” wrong texture match, telegraphing seams, or just a flat circle of compound surrounded by orange-peel walls.

GT502 trained on drywall before we trained on paint. The whole crew handles cuts, hangs, taping, mudding, and texture matching. We do small patches in a single visit. We do full-room rebuilds in a few days. And because we paint over our own work, we know exactly how the surface needs to be sanded, primed, and finished for the topcoat to look seamless.

What we handle

  • Hole repair β€” anything from doorknob dents to fist-sized holes
  • Settling cracks β€” diagonal cracks at door corners, ceiling cracks
  • Water damage β€” ceiling staining, swollen drywall, post-leak rebuilds
  • Popped nails and screws β€” re-set, retape, refinish
  • Full-room drywall hangs β€” basement finishes, additions, garage conversions
  • Ceiling repair β€” cracked, sagging, or water-damaged ceilings
  • Patches around new outlets, recessed lights, ducts, and pipes
  • Texture matching to existing walls β€” knockdown, orange peel, smooth
  • Soundproof drywall (5/8") for shared walls and bedrooms

Why same-crew matters

Drywall and paint are two trades that have to fit perfectly. The mud has to cure fully before primer, the texture has to match before paint, the patch has to feather just right at the edge. When two different contractors handle these two steps, miscommunication is the rule β€” drywall guy texturizes too aggressively, painter primes too soon, seam telegraphs through after one humidity cycle.

With GT502, the crew that mudded the wall is the crew that primes and paints it. They know what they did, when they did it, and how it'll behave under topcoat. The seam is invisible because the same hands shaped both layers.

Common Repairs

Three drywall jobs we do every week.

Doorknob & Furniture Holes

The most common drywall repair in Denver homes. Doorknob holes from doors slamming into walls, dents from moving furniture, gouges from picture-hanger pulls. Cut, patch, mud, sand, texture-match.

~$185-265 each

Water Damage & Ceiling

After a leak. Stained ceiling areas, swollen drywall, sometimes full sections that need to come out. We cut back to clean studs, rebuild, mud, texture-match, and prime. Never paint over water damage without rebuild.

~$485-1,200 per area

Settling Cracks

Diagonal cracks at door corners and ceiling corners are normal in Colorado homes β€” soil shifts, foundation moves slightly. We cut, retape, and feather mud over a wider area so the crack doesn't reopen with the next season change.

~$245-385 per crack

Common Questions

Drywall, answered.

Do I have to schedule paint as a separate job after drywall?

No β€” and this is the big advantage. We schedule drywall and paint together as one project. You get one quote, one foreman, one timeline. The drywall mud has to cure before paint anyway (24–48 hours per coat of compound), so we use that cure time to do other prep work, then prime and paint the same week.

How long does a typical drywall patch take?

A small patch (doorknob hole, picture-hanger damage) is a same-day job β€” usually 30–60 minutes of work, plus 24-hour cure time before sanding and texture-matching. Multi-patch jobs we batch into a single visit. Full-room hangs typically run 2–4 days depending on size.

Can you match my existing wall texture?

Yes β€” and we test before we commit. We do a small sample patch, let it cure, sand it, and compare the texture against the existing wall under the same lighting. Once we're satisfied, we apply the same technique to the full repair. Knockdown, orange peel, and smooth Level-5 are all in our standard toolkit.

What about insurance claims after water damage?

We work with homeowner insurance claims regularly. We document the pre-repair condition with photos, write up an itemized scope of work that adjusters can match against, and submit invoices in the format your insurer needs. We don't handle the claim filing itself, but we make the contractor side as easy as possible.

Can you finish a basement?

Yes. Basement drywall finishes are some of our biggest jobs. We hang, tape, mud, texture, prime, and paint, plus we coordinate with electricians and HVAC subs if needed. Full unfinished-to-finished basement projects are typically 2–3 weeks depending on size and scope.

Do you handle ceiling repair, including popcorn texture?

Yes to ceiling repair. Popcorn texture removal we'll do, but we strongly encourage testing first if the home was built before 1980 β€” popcorn from that era can contain asbestos and requires licensed abatement before we can scrape it. We coordinate testing through a Denver-area lab and schedule abatement before drywall and texture work.
