Our son put a doorknob through the hallway wall the week before we listed the house. Dale came out two days later, matched the orange peel, and our realtor walked right past it.
A ceiling stain from an old AC drip had bugged me for three years. Sealed, textured and painted in one afternoon. He brought his own drop cloths for the couch.
Sent two photos on a Sunday night and had a price before the kids were in bed. The patch behind our TV was $195, exactly what he quoted.
I'm Dale. I take the small jobs the big crews skip.
I spent nine years hanging and finishing for a commercial outfit in Nashville. Every week someone would ask if we could fix a hole in their kid's room, and every week the answer was no. In 2012 I bought a used F-250, started saying yes, and never stopped.
Today it's me and Marcus, who has finished walls with me since 2016. We are the two people who show up, every time. No subcontractors and no sales visit.

Questions before you book
Will I be able to see the patch?
Not once it's painted, if the wall is in normal shape. We feather the mud 12 to 16 inches past the patch and match your texture on a scrap of board before we touch the wall.
Do I need to be home?
For the first visit, yes, so we can walk through it together. For the second coat many customers leave a door code. We text when we arrive and when we leave.
How much dust will there be?
Very little. We put up a plastic dust wall, sand with a vacuum-attached sander and HEPA vacuum the room before we go.
Do you paint the repair?
Every patch gets primer. If you have the leftover paint we roll it on at no charge. If not, we can match a chip for $35 a quart.
My ceiling got wet. Can you fix it right away?
Get the leak fixed first. We check the board with a moisture meter; if it's dry and firm we seal the stain, and if it's soft we cut it out. We point you to a mold tester if anything looks off.
What's the smallest job you take?
Our minimum is $145, which covers up to 10 small holes in one room. Save up a few repairs and we'll do them in one visit.
