Tammy O'Born
“A pipe burst in the basement of our vacation home and we didn’t discover it for a few weeks. I was so upset because it smelled terrible and I didn’t think we would ever get rid of the stench but KPM was so comforting and easy to work with. They had everything cleaned up and looking and smelling better than it had before. They were respectful of our property, finished faster than I expected and I didn’t have to lift a finger. I cannot recommend them enough! Thank you KPM ❤️”

What We Do
Drywall Installation and Repair Services
Drywall After Water Damage
Drywall absorbs water like a sponge. Once saturated, it swells, sags, and loses structural integrity. Even after drying, water-damaged drywall can harbor mold inside the paper facing and gypsum core. In most cases, saturated drywall needs to be cut out and replaced. Patching over wet drywall traps moisture and guarantees mold growth.
All Materials
Our drywall contractors have the experience to handle installation or repair of any material, including sheetrock, plaster, and stucco. From residential homes to commercial buildings, we handle projects of any size.
Matching Existing Finishes
The hardest part of drywall repair is making it invisible. Different eras of construction used different textures: smooth, orange peel, knockdown, skip trowel, and popcorn ceilings. Our crews match the existing texture and finish so the repaired area blends seamlessly with the surrounding walls. We prime and paint to complete the job.
How Drywall Repair Works
Our drywall repair process ensures a clean, code-compliant, invisible repair from assessment through final finish.
Assessment
We inspect all affected drywall, identify the extent of damage, and determine what needs full replacement versus repair. Moisture readings confirm whether underlying areas are dry and safe for new installation.
Remove Damaged Drywall
Compromised sections are carefully cut out and removed. We protect surrounding areas from dust and debris during demolition.
Frame & Prep
Framing is inspected, repaired if needed, and prepped for new drywall. Any underlying moisture or mold issues are addressed before new material goes up.
Install New Drywall
New drywall is hung, screwed to framing, and properly secured. Seams are taped and joints are aligned for a flat, even surface.
Tape, Mud & Sand
Seams are taped and mudded in multiple coats, sanded smooth between each coat. This is where craftsmanship matters. Proper finishing makes the repair invisible.
Paint & Finish
We match existing wall texture, prime, and paint. The finished repair blends seamlessly with surrounding walls, no visible seams, no mismatched texture.

Common Questions
Drywall Repair FAQ
Can water-damaged drywall be saved?
It depends on severity. Minor dampness caught quickly can sometimes be dried and saved. But saturated drywall, especially if it is swollen, sagging, or has been wet for more than 24 to 48 hours, typically needs replacement to prevent mold growth and structural failure.
What materials do you work with?
We handle sheetrock, plaster, and stucco in both residential and commercial properties. Whatever material your walls are made of, we can repair or replace it.
Can you match my existing wall texture?
Yes. Our crews are experienced with all common drywall textures: smooth, orange peel, knockdown, skip trowel, and popcorn. We match the existing texture so the repair area is indistinguishable from the original wall.
Does insurance cover drywall repair?
If the drywall damage resulted from a covered event like a burst pipe, fire, or storm, insurance typically covers removal and replacement. We create detailed estimates and handle direct billing with your carrier.
How long does drywall repair take?
A single room typically takes 3 to 5 days including drying time between mud coats. Larger projects with multiple rooms take 1 to 2 weeks. The timeline depends on the scope of damage and whether underlying issues need to be addressed first.
