Drywall Repair & Interior Painting — Central CT
A nail hole becomes a patch, a patch becomes a bulge, and suddenly one little wall repair looks worse than the original damage. Drywall finishing is a craft: feathered edges, correct compound, patience between coats. That's why it pays to have someone who does it weekly.
We handle repairs of every size — outlet cutouts to doorknob holes to water-stained ceilings — plus the small-scale painting that goes with them: accent walls, single rooms, trim, and touch-up blending so the repair disappears completely.
Serving Kensington, Berlin, New Britain & 10 more CT towns — no travel fee.
Typical pricing: Typical patch-and-paint repairs run $130–$380. Single-room painting is quoted per room after we see wall condition and color changes.

Drywall Repair & Interior Painting — common questions
Can you match my existing wall texture?
In most cases yes — we carry texture sprays and techniques for orange peel, knockdown, and smooth finishes. Send a photo and we'll tell you honestly how close we can get.
Do you paint whole houses?
We focus on small-scope painting: single rooms, accent walls, trim, and repair-related painting. For whole-house projects we're happy to point you to dedicated painting crews we trust.
Can you repair water-damaged drywall?
Yes, once the source of water is fixed. We cut out damaged sections, replace and finish them, and stain-seal before painting. If a leak is still active, we'll tell you to resolve that first.
How long does a patch take?
Most patches need 2–3 short visits because compound must dry between coats. A doorknob hole is often start-to-finish within two days; we'll schedule around you.
Do I supply the paint?
Either way works. We can pick up any brand from local New Britain and Berlin suppliers, or use paint you already have — we'll check you have enough before we start.
