What affects the price

When you get a quote for drywall work, the final number depends on a few specific things. The size of the area matters, but the condition of your existing walls is just as important. If there is significant water damage, mold, or old layers that need removal, that adds labor time. Ceiling height and access also play a role, as harder-to-reach spots require extra equipment. The type of finish you want—smooth versus textured—changes the material needs and hours spent sanding. Every space is unique, so exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Drywall corner bead is a rigid strip made of metal or vinyl that we install on the outside edges of your walls. It protects the corners from bumps and chips while giving you a perfectly straight, sharp edge. You need this whenever two walls come together at an outside corner. It makes the corner much more durable and gives the room a crisp, professional architectural look that is much harder to achieve with just mud and tape.

Frequently asked in Minneapolis

What are some common drywall textures?

Common drywall textures include orange peel, knockdown, and skip trowel. Orange peel is a light spray pattern, while knockdown has a more pronounced, raised effect. Skip trowel creates a more artistic, layered look. The pros can apply these textures to match existing walls or create a new look in your Minneapolis home.

What's the standard drywall thickness?

The most common drywall thickness is half-inch, especially for walls and ceilings. Some applications might call for 5/8-inch drywall, which offers better fire resistance and soundproofing. The crew that comes out will know the best thickness for your project. They use industry-standard materials.

How do I spackle small holes in drywall?

For small holes, you'll apply spackle with a putty knife, smoothing it flush with the wall. Let it dry completely, then sand it smooth. You might need a second coat for a perfect finish. The pros often use specialized tools for a faster, cleaner job. They make it look easy.

What's the difference between drywall and sheetrock?

Sheetrock is actually a brand name for drywall, made by USG. So, when people say sheetrock, they usually mean drywall. It's the gypsum-based paneling used for interior walls and ceilings. The pros work with all types of this material.

Is moisture-resistant drywall good for bathrooms?

Yes, moisture-resistant drywall, often called greenboard, is excellent for bathrooms and kitchens. It has a special paper facing that helps repel moisture, reducing the risk of mold and mildew. It's a great choice for humid areas in your Minneapolis home. Discuss your options with the specialists.
