Drywall Repair in Houston

Cracks, water damage and openings closed, floated and finished flat — in Houston and all around it.

A crack over a doorway or a seam that keeps opening back up isn't random — in most Houston homes it's the slab underneath moving with the clay soil, and the drywall is just where that movement shows up first. HM Flooring repairs the crack and, where it's a repeat problem, looks at why it keeps happening.

This covers everything from a single patch after a plumbing fix to a full ceiling floated and taped from scratch — homeowners in Houston, Katy, Sugar Land, Pearland, and Cypress call for both.

What's included

A full drywall job at HM Flooring means the room gets sealed off in plastic first — floor, doorways, vents — before any sanding starts, because drywall dust travels through a house faster than almost anything else in a remodel. On a recent Houston job the ceiling was floated and taped with the room fully plasticked around it, coat by coat, sanded smooth between each one, before paint ever touched it. Cracks tied to slab movement get treated differently than a simple hole or water stain: the joint gets taped in a way built to flex slightly with the house instead of cracking again in the same spot within a year, which is the usual failure point when a crack gets skim-coated and painted over without addressing the joint underneath.

How we work

In-person visit and written estimate

Harry looks at the crack or damage in person — and where it's slab-related, explains why it's happening — before quoting the job.

Room sealed off

The work area gets plasticked floor to ceiling before any sanding or cutting starts.

Float, tape, sand

Damaged drywall comes out, new joints get taped and floated coat by coat, sanded smooth between each one.

Texture, paint, final clean

Texture gets matched to the existing wall, paint goes on if that's part of the job, and the crew cleans up daily.

Drywall Repair & Finishing by city

Houston and the towns around it are not one job — the houses are different ages, built different ways, and they fail in different places.

Common questions

Why does the same crack keep coming back?
Usually because the joint was skim-coated and painted without addressing the movement underneath — in Houston that's often the slab shifting with the clay soil.
Can you match the texture on my walls?
Yes — texture matching is part of every repair so it doesn't stand out once it's painted.
Will drywall dust get into the rest of my house?
The work area gets fully plasticked off before any sanding starts specifically to keep that from happening.
