When damage covers too much of a wall or ceiling to patch cleanly, full drywall installation or replacement is the more reliable fix. Boise Drywall Repair Pros measures the space, checks the framing underneath, and hangs new panels sized to match the existing thickness so the finished wall reads as one continuous surface.
This service covers both remodel-driven installs in newer Boise construction and full replacement in older homes where water damage, cracking plaster transitions, or outdated materials call for a fresh start rather than another patch.

FAQs
Drywall Installation and Replacement FAQs
Is it cheaper to patch a small hole or replace the whole sheet?
Patching wins for small, isolated damage. Replacement makes sense when a section is more than half damaged or when multiple patches would end up costing more in labor than one clean install.
What's the difference between drywall and plaster repair in an older house?
Plaster is a harder, multi-layer material applied over lath, while drywall is a single panel. Older Boise homes often have a transition point where plaster meets a later drywall addition, and that seam needs different handling than a standard drywall joint.
How long before I can paint a newly installed wall?
Once the final compound coat is sanded and primed, usually a day after the last coat, the wall is ready for paint.
Do you match existing wall thickness when replacing drywall?
Matching thickness (commonly 1/2-inch for walls, 5/8-inch for ceilings or fire-rated areas) keeps the new section flush with surrounding surfaces.
Will new drywall need texture to match the rest of the room?
If the rest of the room has a texture like knockdown or orange peel, yes. Boise Drywall Repair Pros blends new sections into the existing pattern.
