What's included
Repair before painting — and what stays outside the scope
We repair the drywall named in your painting estimate: nail pops, cracks, patches and transitions, then prime and paint those surfaces. This is repair before painting, not a stand-alone drywall business. We do not hang new drywall as a general installer, and we do not take on structural work. If there is an active leak, that source needs to be fixed first — not by us — because paint does not cure water damage. The paint warranty covers eligible paint, not recurring cracks, movement or leaks; terms apply.
Before we paint
Nail pops, cracks, patches and transitions, as listed in the painting scope.
Prime and paint
Repaired areas are primed and painted with the rest of the agreed surfaces.
Not a drywall company
We do not hang or install drywall as a stand-alone trade, and we do not take on structural work.
Leaks and movement
We do not fix the source of a leak. Recurring cracks, movement and leaks are not covered by the paint warranty.

What affects the price
What affects the plan and price
There is not a published drywall-repair rate on this site, so we do not invent one. The number of repairs, the size of the patches, texture matching, and the painting that follows all change the written estimate. We give a written estimate after we review the work.
Where we do this work
Where we do this work
We make these repairs in homes we already serve, as part of a painting project. The estimate always confirms the actual address. This is a service-area map — it is not a pin on an office.
