Who do I hire to repair drywall?

Hire a handyman near you to fix small cracks, nail holes, or patch small holes. Hire a drywall contractor for bigger repairs. Search the HomeGuide listings to hire a drywall contractor near you. Next:

  • Compare at least 3 in-person estimates.
  • Read their reviews on HomeGuide and Google.
  • Ask if the drywall contractor is a member of the Association of the Wall and Ceiling Industry.
  • Choose licensed, insured, and bonded businesses with at least 5 years of experience.
  • Get copies of the detailed quote, contract, and warranty before they start work.
  • Avoid choosing the lowest bid that typically indicates low-quality materials.
  • Never give the final payment until after the project ends.

  • How long have you been hanging drywall?
  • Can I see photos of drywall repairs you've done and a reference list?

  • Which type of drywall do you recommend and why?
  • Can you match the drywall patch to my wall, or will you need to replace the entire wall surface?
  • What are my options if I want moisture-resistant drywall?
  • Does this quote include delivery, hanging, taping and mudding, finishing, and cleanup?
  • What other costs should I expect?
  • How long will the repair take?
  • If damages happen on the job, what's your policy?
  • Do you offer a labor warranty?

I recently hired Vinny and his company to build an addition and deck on my home and I could not be more pleased with the outcome. From the initial plans to the little details Vinny went above and beyond to get me what I wanted. They are honest and very reasonable compared to other contractors I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking to hire the right company this is it!!
