What drywall textures can you match?

Orange peel (splatter), knockdown, skip trowel, smooth Level 5, and popcorn ceilings. We match an existing texture on a repair or apply a fresh, consistent texture across a whole room.

Why does my patch still show after painting?

Usually the texture and sheen weren't matched. We match both the texture pattern and the paint so the repair disappears under normal lighting.

Do you do smooth Level 5 finishes?

Yes — a full skim-coat Level 5 finish for modern smooth walls and ceilings, ideal under big windows and flat paint where every flaw shows.

The difference between a patch and a finish

Anyone can slap mud on a hole. Making it vanish takes matching the texture pattern and the paint sheen to the surrounding wall — that's the craft. We hand- and spray-match every common San Antonio texture, feather repairs into the existing surface, and prime and paint so you can't find the work afterward. The same skill goes into fresh, consistent texture across a whole room or a flawless smooth finish.

Popcorn ceiling removal

We scrape popcorn, skim smooth or re-texture, and repaint. Homes built before the 1980s may need asbestos testing first — we'll advise.
