With over 20 years of drywall experience serving Knoxville and the surrounding area, we have completed hundreds of projects across residential, rental, remodel, and new construction job sites. East Tennessee's humid subtropical climate puts real stress on interior walls, ceilings, and finishes. We apply Level 4 and Level 5 finishing standards, match existing knockdown and skip-trowel textures, and use moisture-resistant board in any space where humidity or water exposure is a factor.

WHAT WE OFFER
Our Drywall Services
Drywall Installation
New room addition? Just framed out your basement? We hang drywall right the first time — proper spacing, right fasteners, no gaps or bubbles that show up when you paint.
We work in homes, rentals, flips, and commercial spaces. One room or a whole house, we measure it out and get it done without a lot of back and forth.
We install standard sheetrock, moisture-resistant board for bathrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated panels where code requires it. We've also got the lifts and the crew for trickier spots — vaulted ceilings, stairwells, 10-foot commercial ceilings.
Drywall Repair & Patching
This is what most Knoxville homeowners call us about first.
A hole from a doorknob. A crack along the ceiling line. Water damage from a slow leak that finally got out of hand. We fix it so it blends in with the rest of the wall — you won't be able to tell it was ever there.
A lot of people try the patch kit from Home Depot first. That usually results in a lumpy spot that catches the light every time you walk past it. We do it right.
Cracks are super common in East Tennessee — especially in older homes in North Knoxville, Fourth and Gill, and areas where the ground settles and houses shift over time. Some cracks are purely cosmetic. Some are a sign of something bigger going on. We'll tell you the difference honestly, not just upsell you on more work.
Drywall Finishing & Texture
Bad finishing is what separates a professional drywall job from one that looks like a weekend project. We tape, mud, and sand to a Level 4 or Level 5 finish depending on what you need.
If you're putting up high-sheen paint or doing a skip-trowel texture, the wall prep has to be perfect. We make sure it is.
Knockdown texture is still really popular in Knoxville — especially for matching existing walls in older homes and additions. We can match your current texture or apply a fresh knockdown finish to a whole room.
We've blended enough walls across West Knoxville and Farragut to know how to make new work disappear into the old.
Water Damage & Restoration Drywall
Knoxville weather can be rough. Heavy rain, ice dams in winter, HVAC condensation leaks — water finds its way in, and drywall is usually the first thing that suffers.
Soggy drywall doesn't just look bad. Left alone, it leads to mold growth behind the walls. We've helped homeowners across Knoxville work through exactly this situation — come in after the source is fixed, cut out the damaged material, let everything dry properly, and replace it with new board. We don't patch over wet drywall and hope for the best.
If you're working through an insurance claim after water damage or a storm, we've done plenty of those too. We document the damage, provide detailed estimates, and do the work that lines up with your adjuster's scope.
Commercial Drywall
Offices, retail buildouts, restaurants, medical spaces — commercial drywall moves fast and the standards are high. We work efficiently, stay on schedule, and communicate clearly with GCs and project managers.
New construction drywall is a different animal than repair work. It's all about speed, consistency, and getting the hang-and-finish done so other trades can follow behind. We work with builders all over Knox County and the surrounding area.
WHAT WE STAND FOR
OUR VALUES
Honest Work,
Every Time
We're not going to pretend there aren't other drywall contractors in Knoxville. There are. But the most common things we hear from customers who tried others first are: "The finish cracked within a few months," "The texture match was way off," and "They didn't show up."
We take all three of those things personally. We show up. We finish what we start. We do it right, not fast-and-sloppy.
Straight Answers on Price and Timeline
No runaround.
No bait-and-switch estimates.
When you call us, you get a real answer on what the work will cost and how long it'll take — before we ever start.
The Right Material for the Right Job
Bathrooms get moisture-resistant board. Shared garage walls get fire-rated panels. Basements get the right board type with the right gaps. We know what goes where and why — so you're not dealing with mold problems, code issues, or callbacks a few years from now.
Clear Communication With Homeowners and GCs
Whether you're a homeowner dealing with your first repair or a general contractor coordinating multiple trades on a commercial build — we communicate clearly, stay on schedule, and don't disappear mid-project.
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Our Drywall Service Testimonials
"I'd had two other contractors look at my ceiling after a pipe burst. Neither one gave me a straight answer. These guys came out, told me exactly what needed to happen, did the work, and you can't tell there was ever any damage. Would call them again without hesitating."
Angela
West Knoxville Resident
"We used them for a full basement finish in our Hardin Valley home. They coordinated well with our electrician and HVAC guy, finished on schedule, and the walls came out perfect. Really professional crew."
Jennifer
Hardin Valley Resident
"Had a popcorn ceiling in our master bedroom that drove me crazy for years. They removed it, skimmed it smooth, and painted it. Looks like a completely different room. Wish I'd done it sooner."
Tom & Lisa
Farragut Resident
"We manage several rental properties in Knox County. These are our go-to guys for any drywall repairs between tenants. Fast, fair, and the patches always look clean."
David
Property Manager, Knoxville
"Great experience from start to finish. They matched our existing knockdown texture perfectly on an addition we built. No one can tell where the old wall ends and the new one starts."

How much does drywall repair cost in Knoxville?
It depends on the size and type of the repair. A small patch (doorknob hole, nail pops) typically runs $150–$350. Larger repairs involving water damage or ceiling replacement can run $500–$2,000+ depending on scope. We give you a specific number after seeing the job — no vague ranges.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We'll come out, look at the job, and give you a straight answer on what it'll cost and how long it'll take. No obligation.
How long does drywall repair take?
Small patches can be done in a day. Larger repairs may need 2–3 visits to allow mud to dry between coats. A full room hang-and-finish typically takes 3–5 days depending on size and finish level. We'll give you an accurate timeline before we start.
Can you match my existing wall texture?
Yes. Texture matching is one of the things we get asked about most — especially for repairs in rooms with knockdown or skip-trowel texture. We've matched textures in homes all across Knoxville. It takes some practice to get it right, but we've had a lot of it.
Do you work on insurance claims?
Yes. We've worked with homeowners on insurance restoration jobs after water damage, storm damage, and burst pipes. We document the damage, provide detailed estimates, and do the work to match the adjuster's approved scope.
What's the difference between Level 4 and Level 5 drywall finish?
Level 4 is standard for most walls — it's smooth, handles most paints well, and is what most homes use. Level 5 adds a skim coat over everything and is best for high-sheen paints or areas with raking light (like ceilings lit from the side). If you're doing a high-end finish or a demanding paint color, Level 5 is worth it. We'll tell you which one your project actually needs.
Do you use moisture-resistant drywall in bathrooms and basements?
Always. Standard drywall in a bathroom or basement is one of the most common mistakes we see when homeowners hire inexperienced contractors. We use greenboard, purple board, or cement board depending on the application — so you're not dealing with mold problems down the road.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We carry full liability insurance and meet all licensing requirements for drywall contractors in Tennessee. We're happy to provide documentation on request.
Do you do commercial drywall work?
Yes. We work on offices, retail spaces, restaurants, medical spaces, and new construction projects across Knox County. We're comfortable working with general contractors and project managers on coordinated timelines.
