What We Repair
Drywall damage comes in many forms. We handle all of them, from simple nail holes to full panel replacements after water damage or renovations.
Holes and Punctures
Small nail holes, doorknob impacts, and medium-sized holes from removed fixtures or ductwork access.
Cracks and Settling Lines
Hairline cracks, seam separation, and settlement cracks that appear at corners, along joints, or across the field of a wall.
Water-Damaged Sections
Softened, stained, or bubbling drywall from roof leaks, plumbing failures, or basement moisture. We remove and replace the affected material.
Popcorn Ceiling Removal
Scraping and skim-coating textured ceilings to a smooth, paint-ready finish.
Our Process
Damage Assessment
We inspect the damage type and size and check for any moisture or structural issues behind the wall before starting repairs.
Moisture and Mold Check
Water damage requires identifying and addressing the source first. We confirm the area is dry and flag any mold concerns before closing up the wall.
Patch or Panel Replacement
Small holes get a backing patch; larger damage gets a full cut-in panel replacement. The right approach depends on the damage size and wall condition.
Taping and Mudding
Joint compound is applied in layers with drying time between coats. Feathering the edges is what makes the repair blend seamlessly into the original wall.
Sanding and Priming
Once fully dry, the compound is sanded smooth and primed so paint adheres evenly across old and new material.
Paint-Ready Finish
Final inspection confirms the repair is level, smooth, and ready for paint. We can also provide a matched coat if you want the repair painted in the same session.
Why Homeowners Choose True Pro
We Find the Problem First
Water-damaged drywall gets a moisture check before we close it up. We are not in the business of hiding a problem under new compound.
Multiple Coats, Full Drying Time
Joint compound applied in one thick pass cracks and shrinks. We apply multiple thin coats with full drying time between each, which is why our repairs hold.
Paint-Ready Standard
Our repairs are primed and feathered to the surrounding wall. You should not be able to find the patch in normal lighting.
What Affects the Cost of Drywall Repair
Drywall repair cost scales with the size and complexity of the damage. Here is what factors into every estimate.
Damage Size
Small holes and nail pops take an hour or two. Large patches requiring full panel cuts take a full day or more, plus drying time between compound coats.
Water Damage Assessment
Water-damaged areas need additional inspection to confirm the source is resolved and the surrounding material is fully dry before we close it.
Number of Repairs
Multiple repairs in one space can be batched efficiently. Isolated single repairs in different rooms take proportionally more time to schedule.
Painting After Repair
New compound and primer absorb paint differently than the surrounding wall. A matched coat over the repair area is often the cleanest finish and can be included in the same visit.
Every estimate is free, written, and specific to your project.
Serving Staten Island and the surrounding region
Older Staten Island homes frequently have plaster walls rather than modern drywall, especially in pre-1970s construction in areas like St. George, New Brighton, and Stapleton. Plaster repair is more involved than drywall patching and requires different materials and techniques. Water damage is also common in Staten Island homes due to the borough's age, older roofing stock, and basement flooding risk, particularly in lower-elevation neighborhoods on the South Shore.

Kevin W.
Silver Lake
“The kitchen cabinets look brand new. They masked everything in plastic, sprayed a perfect finish, and you'd never know they were here besides the cabinets themselves.”
Zachary D.
New Springville
“They repainted our entire first floor. Color consultation was genuinely helpful -- they steered us away from a shade that would have looked awful under our lighting.”
Heather M.
Dongan Hills
“They repainted our entire first floor before we listed the house. Color advice was spot on, coverage was perfect, and they finished a day early. Exactly the result we needed.”
