Palos Heights, Cook County

Drywall Repair in Palos Heights

Patches on the textured walls and ceilings of your Palos Heights home get the texture matched before paint, so the repair does not stand out.

Drywall repair in Palos Heights, texture included

A patch on a textured surface is two jobs: the repair itself and the finish over it. We cut damaged drywall back to sound board, fit a patch, tape it and coat it three times, sanding between coats. Then we rebuild the texture to match what is on the rest of the wall or ceiling, prime it and paint. Everything is laid out in a written estimate before we start.

We cover Palos Heights by Route 83, Harlem Avenue, Ridgeland Avenue and 127th Street, out past Lake Katherine. It is a Cook County city next to Palos Park and Orland Park. If your walls or ceilings have orange peel, knockdown or a swirl texture, a smooth patch in the middle of it shows from across the room. We try the texture on a piece of scrap first and adjust the mix and the tool until it looks right, then do the patch.

Drywall Repair by ONIT Solutions

Textured and smooth wall repairs in Palos Heights

Orange peel and knockdown matched

We spray or hand-apply the texture to the patch and knock it down to match the surrounding wall.

Hand-troweled and swirl finishes

Hand finishes get rebuilt by hand, following the pattern of the surface around them.

Smooth wall repairs

On smooth walls, the patch gets three coats feathered wide and sanded flat.

Ceiling patches

Ceiling holes and stains get new board or a sealer, then texture and ceiling paint to match.

Fastener pops and seam cracks

We reset popped screws and re-tape split seams before the finish goes back on.

Primed and painted

Every patch is primed first, then painted to match, or the full wall is painted when a spot would show.

How a Palos Heights texture repair runs

The estimate visit is free, and we note the texture on each wall or ceiling in the written scope along with each repair. If something unexpected is behind the board, we price it in writing and wait for your approval. The schedule includes drying time for the compound and for the texture before paint, and we give you those dates up front. When we finish, you walk the rooms with us and look at the repairs in normal light.

FAQ

Drywall Repair in Palos Heights: questions

Can you match the texture on my ceiling?
In most cases, yes. We test the texture on scrap until it matches, then apply it to the patch. If the ceiling paint has aged, we may suggest painting the whole ceiling so the color matches too.
Do you work in other towns near Palos Heights?
Yes. We repair drywall in Palos Park, Orland Park and Willow Springs too.
Does drywall repair in Palos Heights need a permit?
Patching and texture work typically does not. Should the repair turn into electrical or plumbing work, we pull the permit where the city requires it.
How many days does a textured patch take?
Usually a few, since the compound dries before texture goes on and the texture dries before paint. We book around the days we said.
How do I get a price?
Call or text (815) 585-1750 with a close photo of the texture and the damage, and we will set up a free estimate.
