Conroe Drywall Co: Residential & Commercial Drywall Contractor in Conroe, TX

Conroe Drywall Co. is an insured residential and commercial drywall contractor serving Conroe, communities throughout Montgomery County, and selected nearby areas. With more than 15 years of experience, we provide drywall repair, drywall installation, drywall finishing and texturing, ceiling repair, and new construction drywall. Our crews also handle metal stud framing, popcorn ceiling removal, and acoustic ceilings and soundproofing.

Our drywall repair work begins with identifying the full extent of the damage rather than covering the visible problem, and every repair is finished to blend into the surrounding surface. Depending on the opening, that may mean a simple California patch, which bonds to the wall through its own attached paper border with no backing needed, or a full cut-out rebuilt over new backing.

For drywall installation, we match the board and finish level to the room and its use: moisture-resistant board in humid areas, Type X drywall in fire-rated assemblies, and Level 5 finishing where demanding lighting requires an exceptionally smooth surface. We follow recognized standards, including the Gypsum Association’s GA-214 finish classifications.

Conroe Drywall Co. brings proven craftsmanship, clear communication, and dependable service to every project we do. We follow established industry practices, including ASTM C840 guidelines for gypsum board application and finishing, and stand behind our work from start to finish.

Our Drywall Services for Montgomery County Homes and Businesses

Each service below is its own trade discipline, with its own board, tools, and finish standards. We match the work to the room, the building system, and the final surface you want.

Paper tape bedded in joint compound over a square drywall patch

Drywall Repair

Everyday wall damage includes doorknob holes, nail pops, corner-bead dings, dents, and settlement cracks. We make a clean cut-out and install backing behind the patch to keep it rigid. Our crews bed paper tape in setting-type joint compound, then apply wide feathered coats that hide the transition. Hairline settlement cracks get mesh tape and a setting compound that resists re-cracking as the house moves. We secure loose corner bead before rebuilding chipped edges. Most common repairs reach a paint-ready finish in one day.

Crew screwing off drywall panels on a wood-framed interior wall

Drywall Installation

Additions, remodels, and garage conversions need panels that remain flat after finishing. We install 1/2-inch USG or National Gypsum board on walls and 5/8-inch gypsum board on ceilings. A depth-set screw gun seats each fastener without tearing the paper face. Crews place screws at 12 to 16 inches on center and orient the tapered edges together so seams finish flat. Our gypsum board hanging and finishing scope takes the room from open studs to the specified finish level.

Hung and taped drywall throughout a new construction interior

New Construction Drywall

New subdivisions around Conroe depend on predictable trade sequencing between cover inspections, drywall, trim, and paint. After inspections pass, we use room-by-room board stocking so crews have the correct panel type at each location. An organized hanging crew can complete a typical house in 1 to 2 days. Taping and finishing follow on a set drying schedule. We hold the hang-and-finish dates a builder schedules against, so the next contractor walks into finished, on-plane walls without waiting.

Taped and finished drywall walls in a commercial tenant build-out

Commercial Drywall Services

Offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and medical suites need interiors that meet code without disrupting daily operations. Our commercial gypsum board installation covers tenant build-outs and phased renovations. We construct one-hour fire-rated assemblies with 5/8-inch Type X board where the approved plans require them. Crews coordinate wall layouts with mechanical, electrical, and plumbing rough-ins before closing the framing, and add backing for casework and wall-mounted equipment. After-hours phased scheduling lets us finish sections while the business keeps using other areas.

Galvanized steel stud partition walls framed in a commercial interior

Metal Stud Framing

Straight gypsum wall systems depend on framing that does not crown, twist, or attract termites. We build interior partitions and furred walls with 25- to 16-gauge steel studs selected for the wall height and loading. Our track-and-stud layout places framing at 16 or 24 inches on center according to the assembly design. Light-gauge members suit many interior partitions, while heavier gauges support taller or more demanding walls. The completed frame provides a true plane for board installation.

Taped drywall on an attached-garage wall and ceiling separation

Fire-Rated Drywall Systems

Drywall serves as a life-safety barrier wherever a wall must slow the spread of fire. We build UL-listed assemblies with 5/8-inch Type X board and follow the listed fastener spacing, layer count, and joint arrangement. One-hour fire ratings depend on the entire tested assembly rather than the panel alone. Crews stagger joints and apply fire caulk at penetrations to preserve the barrier. We use rated assemblies for garage-to-house walls, commercial corridors, and tenant separations where code requires them.

White acoustic ceiling panels suspended in a black grid with integrated lighting

Acoustic Ceiling Installation & Repair

Offices and clinics often need ceilings that absorb sound while keeping pipes, wiring, and ductwork accessible. We establish the suspended grid system with a laser level, square the openings, and install lay-in acoustical ceiling tile. Tile options are compared by NRC ratings, which measure how much sound a surface absorbs. Perimeter angle and hanger wire are set to the ceiling's layout so the grid stays level under load. For repairs, our crews replace stained or broken panels and re-level isolated grid sections without dismantling the rest of the ceiling.

Installer setting drywall over resilient channel and mineral wool insulation

Drywall Soundproofing

Home offices, bedrooms, and media rooms need assembly-level sound control rather than a single insulation product. We install double-layer 5/8-inch board with Green Glue damping compound between layers to reduce vibration. Resilient channel decouples the board from the framing and limits sound paths through studs. Mineral-wool batts can add cavity absorption when the wall design includes them. Properly designed systems can reach STC 50+, where normal speech in the next room becomes difficult to hear.

Finisher coating a corner-beaded drywall archway

Custom Drywall & Architectural Features

Arches, curved partitions, display niches, and coffered ceilings turn drywall into a finished architectural feature. We form curves with 1/4-inch flexible drywall and use double-layer lamination to add stiffness without flattening the radius. Tray ceilings typically drop 4 to 8 inches, depending on room height and lighting plans. Precise coffered-grid layout keeps every box centered and square, and metal corner bead trues each edge and return. We frame, board, bead, and finish each feature as one coordinated scope.

Popcorn texture removed with a vacuum sander in a plastic-masked room

Popcorn Ceiling Removal

Popcorn texture collects dust and can make an otherwise updated room look dated. Texture installed before 1980 can contain asbestos, so we arrange lab testing before any scraping begins and remove only material the results clear as safe. Crews seal floors, walls, doors, and vents with plastic containment, then soften and scrape the surface. We repair the exposed drywall with a skim coat before applying either a smooth finish or a light knockdown texture. Most whole-home projects take 2 to 4 days.

Finisher spraying wall texture with a hopper gun

Drywall Finishing & Texturing

Finishing determines how a wall looks once paint and room lighting reveal every joint. Our three-coat taping and mudding process builds seams gradually with joint compound, followed by topping compound and progressive sanding. We use GA-214 to select the required finish level for each surface. A Level 5 skim coat covers the full paper face and reduces joint shadowing under gloss paint or critical light. Orange peel and flattened knockdown remain available for textured rooms.

Contractor checking a water-stained ceiling corner with a moisture meter

Water Damage Drywall Repair

A lasting rebuild after a roof or plumbing leak depends on framing that is dry and structurally sound before new board goes up. Crews cut damaged gypsum back to sound material and confirm the studs and cavity read dry on a moisture meter. We replace insulation that stayed wet, hang new board in the matching thickness, then re-tape into the surrounding plane and rebuild the existing texture. Moisture-resistant board goes where the room warrants it. Active mold or the moisture source itself may need another qualified trade first.

Finisher coating taped seams on a new drywall ceiling

Drywall Ceiling Installation

New ceilings need enough stiffness to resist waves and long-term sagging. We use a drywall panel lift to raise sheets safely and hold them tight against the framing during fastening. Crews install 5/8-inch ceiling board or a sag-resistant panel where joist spacing and room conditions call for it. We hang panels perpendicular to the joists to improve stiffness and reduce unsupported seams. Screws are set back from the panel edges to avoid crumbling, and the layout suits additions, converted garages, finished attics, and rooms built beneath new framing.

New partition wall framed with a door opening and half boarded

Partition Wall Installation

A new partition can divide an open room into a home office, nursery, closet, or private commercial suite. We frame with wood or steel studs at 16 inches on center, checking the layout for square before fastening the plates. Full-height partitions extend to the structure above when privacy and sound control matter. We build framed door openings with headers sized for the opening and hardware. Both faces are boarded and finished to create a complete new room boundary.

Green moisture-resistant board hung beside cement backer board at a tub alcove

Moisture-Resistant Drywall Installation

Conroe's humid climate raises indoor moisture, especially in garages and attic-adjacent rooms. Our room-by-room board specification places green board in bathrooms and laundry rooms where damp air is common. In direct splash zones such as tub and shower surrounds, we install cement board or an approved wet-area backer instead, since moisture-resistant gypsum is not rated to sit behind tile in standing water. We use paperless fiberglass-faced panels where the moisture load runs higher. Garages and attic-adjacent ceilings receive panels selected for their humidity exposure.

Re-screwing a cracked ceiling panel back to the framing

Ceiling Repair

Ceilings develop sags, water stains, and stress cracks that require overhead access and added support. We re-screw sound but loose panels into the framing. Severely bowed sections receive 5/8-inch sag-resistant ceiling board that better carries its own weight. Scaffold staging gives our crews stable access to ceilings up to 18 feet high. We seal stains with a stain-blocking primer so they cannot bleed through paint, then blend the overhead texture and inspect the repair from several angles under the room's normal lighting.

Plaster washers drawing a cracked plaster wall back to its wood lath

Plaster Repair

Older houses can have plaster that cracks as its keys release from the wood lath behind it. We use plaster washers to draw loose sections back against the lath without removing sound surrounding material. Crews bridge stable cracks and rebuild shallow losses with veneer plaster. Where the original surface is beyond repair, we cut the opening square, install drywall infill, and bring the new face flush. The finish is then blended across the plaster-to-drywall transition.

Fiberglass batts trimmed around an electrical box in an open stud bay

Drywall Insulation

The practical time to insulate a wall is before drywall closes the stud cavities. We fit fiberglass batts rated R-13 to R-15 in exterior walls and trim them closely around electrical boxes, pipes, and blocking. Gaps or compressed batts reduce thermal performance, so crews fill each bay without bunching the material and split batts around wiring rather than crushing them. Mineral-wool sound batts add density inside bedrooms and interior partitions. Proper batt insulation also reduces heat gain during Conroe's long cooling season.

Finisher coating a gypsum-board soffit box along the ceiling

Drywall Soffits & Bulkheads

Ductwork, drain lines, and structural transitions often need framed chases that fit cleanly into the room. We size each chase to the duct run or pipe clearance, avoiding an oversized box that lowers more ceiling than necessary. Crews wrap the framing in gypsum board and true every exposed edge with corner bead. Inside corners are taped and outside returns beaded so the box reads as part of the original architecture. We also build kitchen soffits above cabinets, recessed-lighting coves, and clean ceiling-height transitions between connected rooms.

Painter rolling primer over taped drywall seams and compound

Drywall Priming & Painting

A sound patch can remain visible when fresh compound absorbs paint differently from the surrounding wall. We apply PVA drywall primer over new gypsum and compound to create an even base for topcoats. Our sheen matching accounts for color, gloss level, age, and the direction of room lighting. We usually repaint the full wall when a patch extends beyond a few square feet. Painting from corner to corner creates a uniform field under changing light.

Dated wallpaper scraped from a wall during removal

Wallpaper Removal

Wallpaper can release cleanly or pull away the drywall's paper face if removal starts too aggressively. We test a small area, perforate coated coverings with a scoring tool, and loosen the adhesive with a wallpaper steamer. Crews wash remaining paste from the surface so it cannot interfere with primer. Torn facing paper receives a sealer before skimming. We apply a skim coat to Level 4, leaving the wall smooth and ready for primer and paint.

Texture Matching That Makes Repairs Disappear

Sprayed and hand-applied finishes cover most walls in Conroe homes. Drywall professionals know a flat patch can still stand out when its pattern differs from the surrounding wall. Texture matching must reproduce the existing knockdown, orange peel, or hand-applied skip-trowel finish.

The Textures on Texas Walls

Four common finish families appear in local homes. Knockdown texture starts as sprayed splatter that a finisher flattens with a wide knife. Orange peel texture uses a finer sprayed pebble, while hand-applied skip-trowel texture forms irregular arcs and skips. Smooth walls leave no pattern to disguise surface flaws. Age also matters. Compound thickness, nozzle pressure, and layers of paint make a 1995 knockdown look different from a 2020 application, so we match the finish’s era as well as its name.

Test Patches Before the Real One

We prepare an in-place test patch or sample board before texturing the repair. Our nozzle-pressure calibration adjusts the compound mix, airflow, and hopper spray gun opening until the wet sample matches the surrounding wall texture. Once you approve the pattern, we spray the patch and use perimeter blending to soften the transition into the original finish. We check the dried surface under side lighting before primer and paint. After painting, you should have trouble pointing out where the repair begins and ends.

What Drywall Work Costs in Conroe

Most drywall repairs in Conroe run $250 to $1,800 depending on the damaged area and required finish, with the average job landing near $600. New installation runs about $2.00 to $3.50 per square foot installed. We build each written estimate from the following elements and job conditions.

  • Materials and labor: Every estimate covers panels, fasteners, tape, joint compound, hanging, finishing, texture, paint, and debris haul-off. Labor is the larger share on most jobs, so whatever adds crew hours moves your price more than the material choice does.
  • Size and access: Square footage sets the starting number, and access sets the rest. A doorknob patch in an open hallway is quick work; the same patch on an 18-foot stairwell ceiling needs scaffolding and a second crew member, so reaching the damage can cost more than repairing it.
  • Finish level: Level 4 is the standard finish: three coats of compound over the seams and screw dimples, sanded smooth, then textured or painted. Level 5 adds a thin skim coat across the whole wall rather than only the joints, so the surface takes paint evenly. That extra pass of material and sanding over every square foot is the Level 5 upcharge. It pays off where gloss paint or raking window light would show every joint, while textured Level 4 hides those transitions for less.
  • Board type: Standard 1/2-inch gypsum board is the least expensive. Moisture-resistant board for bathrooms and laundry rooms costs more per sheet, as does 5/8-inch Type X fire-rated board for garage and separation walls. Type X panels are also heavier, which adds hanging time to the material cost.
  • Water damage: A water repair adds work before the rebuild starts: moisture readings, cutting back past the visible stain to dry material, and confirming the framing is sound. The finished repair is usually larger than the stain looked, so material and labor both run past a simple patch.

How Humidity and Storm Seasons Affect Drywall in Conroe

What Heavy Rain Years Do to Walls and Ceilings

Conroe receives about 51 inches of rain a year, and storm seasons put sustained humidity, roof leaks, and plumbing leaks to the test. Paper-faced gypsum wicks water and shows ceiling stains or soft, water-damaged walls early, which is often your first warning. Left wet long enough, a wall can grow mold, and stopping the leak at its source is a separate trade’s job. We handle the drywall once the cause is corrected and the cavity reads dry.

The Rooms That Need the Right Board

Moisture exposure also decides which board belongs in each room, the judgment behind our moisture-resistant drywall installation service. To protect the finish, keep living areas between 30 and 50 percent relative humidity with the air conditioner or a dehumidifier as needed.

Serving Conroe, Texas and the Surrounding Communities

Conroe is the county seat of Montgomery County, about 40 miles north of Houston on Interstate 45, and one of the fastest-growing corners of the Houston metro. That growth means new subdivisions, room additions, established-home remodels, and commercial construction, often within the same week. As local drywall contractors, we move between fresh gypsum board in unfinished buildings and careful texture matching inside decades-old homes, and we already know these neighborhoods and how their houses are built.

Common Drywall Questions in Conroe

Quick answers to the questions Conroe homeowners and builders ask us most about repair, installation, and finishing work.

How much does drywall repair cost in Conroe?

Most drywall repairs in Conroe cost $250 to $1,800 based on patch size and finish, with the average job near $600. A single patch usually sits near the low end, and our on-site estimate provides a firm written price.

Are sheetrock and drywall the same thing?

Yes. Sheetrock is a brand of drywall made by USG, and the name caught on so widely that most people in Texas use the two words interchangeably. Drywall, sheetrock, gypsum board, and wallboard all describe the same panel, so whichever term you searched for, it is the same material and the same work.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are an insured drywall contractor and can send our certificate of insurance before work begins.

How long does a typical drywall repair take?

Most repairs take one day, including texture. Water-damage rebuilds usually require 2 to 3 visits because our crew verifies that the wall stays dry between steps.

Can you match my existing wall or ceiling texture?

Yes. We match orange peel, knockdown, and hand-applied patterns. We spray a sample board for your approval, then keep it beside the repair as a reference during final application.

Do you fix water-damaged drywall?

Yes. We remove damaged board, inspect exposed insulation and backing, and verify dry framing before rebuilding. Active mold or the leak source may require another qualified trade first.

How long does it take to drywall a whole house?

Our crews hang a 1,000 to 2,000-square-foot house in 1 to 2 days. Finishing adds about a week because the coats dry between visits. Tall ceilings or Level 5 work can extend the schedule.

Do you offer free estimates and financing?

Yes. Our on-site estimates are free, itemized, and carry no obligation. Financing is available for larger projects.

How do I care for new drywall after a repair or installation?

Give each compound coat and any fresh texture about 24 hours to dry, longer in humid weather, then prime before painting so the sheen stays even across new and existing surfaces. After that, install door stops behind door swings, hang anything heavier than about 10 pounds on a stud or a rated wall anchor, and investigate any new wall or ceiling stain the week it appears.
