Water damage repair
Stained or sagging ceilings cut back, re-boarded and sealed once the area is dry.
Painted to blend
Primer and paint included on most repairs so the patch disappears.
Most patches in one visit
Small holes and cracks are often finished in a single visit; larger work is scheduled in short stages.
Contained and clean

Tell us what happened
Send photos and a short description through the Assistant, or call. We ask about the room, the size of the damage, texture type, and whether moisture was involved.
Written estimate
You get a clear scope and price before anything starts: patch, tape, texture, prime, paint, and cleanup are all listed so there are no surprises.
Scheduled visit
Our dispatcher books an arrival window that works for you. The technician confirms before heading out and brings the materials for your texture.
Contained repair
Work zone is masked, damaged board is cut back to solid framing, new drywall is fastened, taped, and floated in coats.
Texture and paint
Texture is matched on a test board, applied, then primed and painted so the repair disappears into the surrounding surface.
Walkthrough
We clean up, walk the repair with you in daylight, and correct anything you point out before the job is called finished.

FAQ
Drywall repair questions, answered
Anything not covered here? Ask the Assistant — it answers drywall questions and can start an estimate in the same conversation.
How long does a typical drywall repair take in Palm Beach County?+
Most small patches, nail pops, and single holes can often be handled in a single visit. Larger ceiling sections, water-damaged areas, or repairs that need multiple coats of compound usually need a second visit for sanding, texture, and paint so the finish cures properly.
Can you match my existing wall or ceiling texture?+
Yes. We match knockdown, orange peel, skip trowel, smooth Level 5, and older popcorn ceiling textures. We test the texture on a sample board first so the repaired area blends with the surrounding surface instead of standing out under Florida daylight.
Do you repair drywall damaged by a roof or plumbing leak?+
We repair the drywall once the source of the water is stopped and the cavity is dry. If the area is still wet or shows active mold, we will tell you plainly and recommend drying or remediation first rather than closing up a wall that will fail again.
Do you paint after the repair?+
Yes. Priming and painting the repaired area is part of most jobs. If you want a full wall or full room repainted for a seamless color match, we can include that in the estimate.
Do you clean up the dust?+
We mask off the work zone with plastic and drop cloths, use a vacuum-assisted sander where possible, and clean the area before we leave. Drywall dust is fine and travels, so containment is set up before any cutting or sanding starts.
How do I get an estimate?+
Open the Assistant on any page or call (305) 360-0342. The Assistant collects your address, a short description, and photos if you have them, then routes the request to our dispatcher for scheduling.
Which parts of Palm Beach County do you cover?+
We serve Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Lake Worth Beach, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Boca Raton, Wellington, Greenacres and the rest of Palm Beach County, including Royal Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Jupiter, Juno Beach, Riviera Beach, Lake Park, Lantana, Palm Springs, North Palm Beach.
Are condo and HOA buildings a problem?+
No. We work in condos and HOA communities regularly and can provide the work-hour and access details most buildings ask for before allowing interior work.
