Assess and prep
We evaluate the damage, cut back to clean edges, and prep the surrounding surface for a lasting repair.
Patch and tape
New drywall or mesh patch is set, taped with joint compound, and built up in multiple coats for strength.
Texture match
We replicate your existing texture (knockdown, orange peel, skip trowel, or smooth) with spray or hand techniques.
Prime and clean up
Repaired area is primed and the job site is left clean; touch-up paint is the only remaining step.

Drywall Repair in New Orleans: questions answered.
How much does drywall repair cost in New Orleans?
In New Orleans, drywall repair typically runs based on scope and materials. Pro House Maintenance gives every New Orleans homeowner a free, fixed-price written quote before any work begins, so there are no surprises.
Can you match my existing wall texture?
Yes. We carry multiple spray textures and hand-apply custom blends to match knockdown, orange peel, skip trowel, and smooth finishes. Older homes with hand-applied textures require more artistry than spray-on work. We always test the blend on a scrap board before applying to your wall to confirm the pattern and density match the surrounding surface.
How long before I can paint over the repair?
Joint compound needs 24 to 48 hours of dry time between coats before sanding and priming. Most single-coat patches on small holes are paint-ready within one business day. Larger repairs built up in multiple coats (like panel replacements or ceiling repairs) may need two full days of drying time before the final prime coat is applied.
