Drywall Repair Essentials

How much does drywall repair cost in Studio City?

Costs vary based on damage type:

  • Small holes (under 6"): $50-$150
  • Water damage repair: $300-$800 per affected area
  • Full ceiling replacement: $1.50-$3.50 per sq. ft.

Can I repair drywall water damage myself?

While minor stains can be painted over, structural water damage requires professional assessment. Hidden mold growth (common in LA's humid areas) often needs EPA-certified remediation protocols.

How long does drywall texture matching take?

Most texture repairs dry within 24 hours, but complex matches (like orange peel or knockdown) may require 2-3 layers. Our technicians use laser-level tools for perfect blends.
