Drywall Repair Done Right the First Time
C.S.W. Power Solutions repairs nail pops, hairline cracks, door-knob holes, settlement cracks at window corners, and anchor-point damage across San Antonio. Small patches are typically completed in a single visit; structural cracks get investigated before cosmetic work begins.
Because we hold Texas plumbing, electrical, and HVAC licenses in-house, we can safely open a wall, diagnose a leak or wiring issue, fix the underlying problem, and close the wall — all on one invoice, under one warranty.
Every patch includes drywall replacement, taping, three coats of joint compound, sanding, texture matching, prime, and paint to the nearest natural break. You should not be able to tell where the repair was when we leave.
New Drywall Installation for Remodels & Additions
For additions, garage conversions, ADUs, basement finish-outs, and full remodels, we hang, tape, float, and finish to Level 4 by default and Level 5 for walls that will receive gloss paint or raking light. Ceilings are hung perpendicular to joists with screws on 12-inch centers.
We install standard 1/2-inch, moisture-resistant green board for wet areas, cement board behind tile, Type X 5/8-inch fire-rated board where code requires it, and sound-rated assemblies for media rooms and shared walls in duplex builds.
All framing is checked for plumb and crown before rock goes up; we will shim or plane rather than float an out-of-plane wall flat with mud. That extra hour of prep is why our finished walls do not telegraph joints a year later.
Texture Matching for Older San Antonio Homes
Matching existing texture is where most drywall repairs fail. We hand-match knockdown, orange peel, skip trowel, Santa Fe, hawk and trowel, popcorn (acoustic), and smooth Level 5 finishes, testing on a sample board before applying to your wall.
For homes built before 1980, we treat any popcorn ceiling as potentially asbestos-containing until tested. We can coordinate sampling with a licensed third-party lab and, if needed, a certified abatement contractor before repair or removal begins.
Once texture is matched, we prime the patched area with drywall-specific primer so the new paint does not flash against the surrounding wall. Flashing is the #1 reason a "good" patch still looks obvious, and primer eliminates it.
Water Damage, Mold, and Ceiling Patches
Water-damaged drywall is never just a cosmetic problem. Before we patch, we find and fix the source — roof flashing, supply line, drain line, AC condensate, or window pan — using our in-house plumbing (RMP46592) and HVAC (TACLA26479R) trades.
We cut back to dry, sound substrate (not just the visible stain), dry the cavity with air movers for 48–72 hours, treat framing with an EPA-registered antimicrobial when warranted, and only then rebuild with new rock, tape, and texture.
Ceiling patches get special attention: we sister or block behind the opening so the patch has a rigid perimeter, screw on 8-inch centers, and tape with paper rather than mesh for a stronger joint that will not crack when the HVAC cycles.
