Mike has repaired and installed drywall throughout Holly Springs, Apex, Cary, Raleigh, and across the Triangle area for over a decade.

Our Drywall Repair Process
Assess & Prep
We evaluate the damage, identify any underlying causes, and protect surrounding surfaces.
Patch or Hang
We cut clean edges, secure backing, and apply or hang new drywall precisely.
Tape & Mud
We tape seams and apply multiple compound coats, feathering for an invisible transition.
Texture & Sand
We match the existing wall texture and sand to a smooth, paint-ready surface.
Why Homeowners Hire Us for Drywall
Drywall seems simple until it isn’t. Many DIY attempts result in obvious patches, mismatched textures, or visible seams. Mike’s technique — built over 10+ years of hands-on experience — produces results that truly blend in. We also take extra care to protect your floors, furniture, and surfaces during the dusty parts of drywall work.

Frequently Asked Questions — Drywall Repair
Can you match my wall’s texture?
In most cases, yes. We’re experienced with the most common textures in Triangle-area homes including orange peel, knockdown, skip trowel, and smooth. We’ll assess the texture before starting and let you know what’s achievable.
Should I repair or replace water-damaged drywall?
If the drywall is soft, moldy, or crumbling, it needs to be replaced — not just dried out. We’ll remove the damaged section, check for mold, and install new drywall properly. Read our guide on drywall repair vs. replacement.
How long does a typical drywall repair take?
A standard patch repair takes 1–2 visits (one to apply compound, one to sand and finish after drying). Larger installations take 1–3 days depending on the scope.
Do I need to be home?
We prefer someone to be home so we can walk through the work and answer questions, but we’re flexible. We can discuss arrangements that work for your schedule.
