Drywall Repair and Installation In Barrie and GTA

Barrie homes face unique drywall challenges. Older homes in Holly and downtown Barrie often have original plaster walls that crack as foundations settle—a common issue in 1960s-70s construction. Newer builds in East Bayfield and Allandale sometimes experience drywall cracks from house settling in the first few years. Basement walls throughout South Shore and Cundles East are prone to water damage and moisture, requiring moisture-resistant repairs. We understand Barrie's climate, soil conditions, and how homes age here. Whatever caused your drywall damage—settling, water, impact, or age—we know exactly how to fix it permanently.

SMALL HOLES (Nail Holes, Picture Hangers, Doorknobs)

Holes from picture hangers, nails, and doorknob impacts are quick fixes. We patch them with spackle, sand smooth, and paint. Seamless—you'll never see it was there

LARGER HOLES (Furniture Impact, Accidents)

Larger holes from moving furniture, roughhousing, or dropped items require a drywall patch. We cut out the damaged area, insert a new patch, tape and mud the seams, sand, and paint. Professional finish guaranteed.

DRYWALL CRACKS (Settling, Structural Movement)

Foundation settling and house movement cause cracks in walls and ceilings. We assess whether the crack is cosmetic or indicates structural issues. We repair cosmetic cracks. For structural concerns, we recommend assessment by a structural engineer.

WATER DAMAGE REPAIR

Water from leaky roofs, plumbing issues, or basement moisture damages drywall. We assess the damage, check for mold, replace damaged sections, ensure proper waterproofing, and finish. Proper repair prevents future problems and mold growth.

CEILING REPAIRS

Ceiling damage from water leaks, settling, or impact requires overhead work—we use proper safety equipment. Ceiling repairs are more complex and take longer than wall repairs. We handle all types safely and professionally.

DRYWALL TEXTURE MATCHING

Seamless repairs require matching the existing drywall texture. We specialize in texture matching—whether your wall is popcorn, orange peel, smooth, or custom texture, we match it perfectly.
