Best Drywall Near Me — 2026 Guide & Top Pros Across 22 U.S. Cities
Drywall is two separate skills sold by people who often pretend they''re the same. Hanging drywall is fast — anyone with framing experience can put up a panel and screw it off. Finishing drywall (taping, mudding, sanding, texture matching) is craft work that distinguishes a $40-an-hour generalist from a $90-an-hour specialist. The 22 U.S. cities with drywall pros in our directory cover both: full-room hang-and-finish for additions and basement finishes, single-wall patches for water damage or accidental holes, ceiling repairs (often the hardest because of texture matching), and finish-only work where someone else hung the rock and you need it taped and floated. Patches run $200 to $600 each depending on size and texture complexity; smooth-wall patches blend easier than orange-peel or knockdown patches. Full-room hang and finish runs $2.50 to $5.50 per square foot of wall area. Smooth-wall Level 5 finishes (used in homes with lots of natural light, or behind floor-to-ceiling artwork) cost 30–50% more than standard Level 4. The biggest quality test is checking the work under raking light — any flashing or shadow that shows up at a low angle won''t hide once paint is on the wall.

What to Look For
Ask whether the bid is for hang-only, finish-only, or both — these are different prices. Specify the finish level (4 vs 5) in writing. Confirm dust protection: plastic on floors, dust-control sheeting on door openings, HEPA-vac cleanup. Verify GL insurance ($1M minimum). For ceiling work, ask whether the contractor will warranty the texture match — a good finisher will, a bad one won't.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does drywall repair cost?
Small hole patch (under 6 inches): $200–$400. Larger patch with bracing (up to 18 inches): $300–$650. Ceiling patch: 20–40% more than wall patch because texture matching is harder. Full-wall replacement (e.g., water damage): $500–$1,500 per wall. Sanding and re-texturing an entire room: $1,200–$3,500.
What''s a Level 5 finish?
The smoothest drywall finish — a skim coat of joint compound over the entire surface, sanded to a uniform texture. Used in spaces with strong natural light, gloss paint, or floor-to-ceiling art where any imperfection would show. Costs 30–50% more than the Level 4 finish that''s standard in most homes.
Can I match the existing texture on a patch?
Smooth walls and light orange-peel patch well by a skilled finisher; heavy knockdown, swirl, or popcorn ceilings are much harder to match invisibly. Best to repaint the entire wall after a patch in those textures, otherwise the patch shows in raking light. Ask the contractor to texture-test on cardboard before applying to the wall.
How long does drywall work take?
Small patch: 2 visits, 3–5 days apart (mud needs to dry between coats). Full room hang and finish: 5–10 business days depending on humidity. Texture and paint adds 1–3 more days. Rushing drywall is the most common cause of cracking later.
Do I need to remove furniture for drywall work?
Yes — drywall dust gets everywhere even with plastic sheeting. Most contractors include light protection (plastic on floors, dust barriers on doorways) but won''t move furniture. Plan to move anything fragile or fabric-covered out of the room for the duration of the work.
