Dexter, Michigan Drywall Contractors for Every Home

Yes, and this is a key reason Dexter homeowners seek us out specifically. Many of the older homes along Dexter-Chelsea Road and in the historic district have original plaster on wood lath. Most drywall companies won't touch it, or worse — they rip it out and replace it with drywall, destroying your home's character. We use traditional plaster repair techniques with lime-based materials that bond properly to historic plaster. The result looks original because it is original — just repaired.

Dexter homes near the Huron River and Mill Creek corridor deal with higher water tables and seasonal moisture. If your basement drywall is showing bubbling tape, soft spots, or stains, the first step is addressing the moisture source — whether that's a sump pump, french drain, or grading issue. Once the water problem is resolved, we can replace the damaged drywall and install moisture-resistant materials (green board or cement board in problem areas) to prevent recurrence. We work with several Dexter waterproofing companies and can coordinate timing.

Absolutely. We work with several builders in the Dexter area on new construction drywall installation and finishing. We can hang, tape, and finish to whatever level your builder specifies — typically level-4 for standard walls and level-5 for areas that will receive high-gloss paint or strong lighting. We also handle the specialized finishing that custom builders in Dexter require, like rounded corners, archways, and tray ceilings.

Most repairs are completed in a single visit of 2–4 hours. This includes protecting the area, performing the repair, applying texture to match, and cleaning up. A textured repair may need a brief follow-up visit (15–30 minutes) for a final touch-up coat once the initial compound has fully dried. We schedule that follow-up at the time of the first visit so you're not waiting.

No. Dexter is roughly 30 minutes from our 20874 Hasenclever Dr, South Lyon, MI 48178, United States office via M-14, which is well within our standard service area. We never add a travel surcharge for Dexter or any other Washtenaw County community. The price we quote is the price you pay — period. We also serve nearby Chelsea, Saline, Ann Arbor, and Pinckney with the same no-travel-fee policy.

Every time. We identify textures by eye — orange peel, knockdown, skip trowel, swirl, stomp, and several less common patterns. If the texture is unusual or degraded, we'll do a small test patch in an inconspicuous area, let you approve it, then proceed with the actual repair. We've matched textures in Dexter homes ranging from 1890s plaster to 2020s new construction. If we can't match it to your satisfaction, you don't pay — that's our guarantee.
