Austin drywall repair, texture matching and paint

Almost every Austin home cracks somewhere - over a doorway, along a ceiling seam, at the corner of a window. Clay soil movement and 40-degree temperature swings do it. The repair is easy; matching orange peel or knockdown texture so the patch disappears is the skilled part.

Serving Austin, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, Leander, and select surrounding communities.

What drywall and paint costs in Austin

Small Austin patches run $150 to $350, larger wall or ceiling sections $400 to $900, and full room texture and repaint $1,000 and up depending on ceiling height.

Ranges are typical Austin-area pricing for planning only, not a quote.
