How it Works
Our Skim Coating & Drywall Repair Process
We focus on creating a smooth, stable surface before any paint is applied. Here’s how we do it:
Assessment & Preparation
During your consultation, we inspect all interior walls and ceilings for damage or imperfections. We determine whether light patchwork or full skim coating is needed.
Repair & Skim Coating
We repair holes, cracks, dents, and seams with industry-standard materials. For uneven surfaces or heavy texture, we apply a skim coat—a thin layer of compound—to create a smooth, uniform base.
Sanding & Priming
Once dry, we sand to perfection and prime the repaired areas. This gives our paints optimal adhesion and ensures a consistent finish across all surfaces.
Painting Begins
After prep, we continue with our standard interior painting process to bring color and life to your freshly smoothed walls.

Why It Matters
Benefits of Skim Coating & Drywall Repair
Opting for professional drywall repair services ensures a seamless restoration of your home’s interior walls, offering long-lasting solutions that address both cosmetic and structural concerns.
Smooth, Flawless Walls
Damaged drywall can disrupt the appearance of a room, drawing attention away from your decor and design. Professional repair restores the surface to a smooth and even state, blending repairs seamlessly with the rest of the wall.
Enhanced Longevity
Repairs conducted by skilled professionals prevent existing damage from worsening and help reinforce the structural integrity of your walls, protecting against future issues such as sagging or warping.
Time-Saving and Efficient
DIY drywall repair often leads to patchy results or extended timelines. Professional services streamline the process, with experts completing the work quickly and efficiently while maintaining high standards of quality.
A Perfect Base for Painting
Repaired walls provide an ideal surface for interior painting projects, ensuring that colors appear vibrant and even. Uneven patches or residual damage can interfere with the final look of a paint job, making professional drywall repair a crucial precursor to any painting project.

FAQs
Drywall & Skim Coating FAQs
Do you offer drywall repair as a separate service?
No—our drywall and skim coating work is done only as part of an interior painting project to ensure consistency and quality. Minor repairs are included in your interior scope of work, but for extensive drywall repairs, we will provide a separate quote.
Can you fix textured walls or ceilings?
Yes, we can skim coat textured walls or ceilings to create a smooth surface before painting.
Is dust a concern during repairs?
We use dust control sanding tools and protective coverings to keep your space clean and safe.
What types of damage can you repair?
We handle holes, cracks, nail pops, peeling tape, and water damage repairs before painting begins.
How long does drywall repair add to the painting timeline?
It depends on the size and scope of the repairs. Most drywall prep is completed in 1–2 days before painting begins.
