Get the damaged drywall back into a finished room
Holes, cracks, and damaged board interrupt the room. Filling the opening is only part of the job; the repair also has to meet the surrounding wall and its existing texture before paint goes on.
Solis repairs damaged drywall, then carries the same area through texture matching and paint preparation. That connects board repair to the surrounding finish and gives the room a clear path from damaged wall back to its painted surface.
- Damaged board repaired with the surrounding surface in view.
- Texture and paint preparation carried with the repair.

Choose the repair that fits the damage
A dent needs filling. A hole or broken edge needs cutting back to solid board, a backer behind the opening and a new piece set in. A crack running along a seam means the joint itself failed, so we re-tape it. Paint alone won't hold any of those. Our quote says which repair each spot needs.

Make the patch meet the wall cleanly
We tape the new piece in and feather the compound well past its edges so no ring shows around it. After sanding, the texture goes on to match the wall, and paint can stop at the patch or run to the corner, depending on how the old paint has aged.
Repairs between tenants
About 37% of Tumwater's occupied homes are rented. When a unit turns over, we can work through every room, list each repair by wall and leave the unit ready for paint, which makes the job easy to check against your move-out notes.
Text the damage for a quick read
One close photo and one from across the room is usually enough for a price. Tell us if a plumber or electrician still needs the opening, and whether you want paint included.
Drywall Repair questions in Tumwater
Can a small hole be patched without replacing a full sheet?
Yes. We cut the hole square, put a backer behind it and set in a new piece. Replacing a whole sheet is only for wide damage.
Does drywall repair include matching the paint?
We can add it. Painting to the nearest corner hides the repair better than touching up the patch alone.
