5-Star Drywall Repair Specialists

Drywall Repair in Burbank's Verdugo Foothill Area

Much of Burbank was built during and right after World War II, when the city’s population more than doubled and housing tracts went up in Magnolia Park for returning veterans. Those homes are now about 75 years old, with plaster or early drywall, hand-applied textures and decades of settling cracks. We patch the damage, match the original finish, touch up the paint and back every repair for 5 years.

5-Star Repairs That Match the Original Finish

Customers rate us 5 stars because the repair blends in, the room stays clean and we answer fast. In a Burbank home from the 1940s or 1950s, blending in means matching a texture someone troweled by hand, and we take that time before any paint goes on.

Repairs for Burbank's Postwar and Midcentury Homes

Burbank’s housing is older than most of the area we serve. The typical home was built in 1958, and 73% were built before 1980 (US Census). The population went from about 34,000 in 1940 to about 79,000 in 1950, and Magnolia Park’s tracts went up between 1945 and 1950. Homes from that period often have plaster walls or early gypsum board with hand-applied textures that a spray gun can’t copy.

Burbank shook strongly in the 1994 Northridge earthquake, and many older homes still show the effects of that and of decades of settling: diagonal cracks at door and window corners, cracks along old ceiling seams and earlier patches that never quite matched.

About 57% of Burbank homes are rented. Whether you own a single-family house or manage a duplex, we quote from photos and can patch, texture and touch up a unit between tenants.

Your Options

Professional Patch vs. Handyman Touch-Up

Hand-troweled walls in an older Burbank home are where quick patches show the most. Filler sanded flat stands out against the texture, and cracks that were only caulked or spackled tend to open again. Here is what you get from each option.

Our Drywall Repair Process

Four steps, one crew, and a repair you will not find afterward

Step 01 of 04

Assess and Scope

We look at the damage in person or from your photos, check for moisture and soft spots, and give you a clear price before any work starts.

Step 02 of 04

Protect and Prep

Floors, furniture and fixtures get covered and masked. We cut back to solid material and add backing wherever the patch needs support.

Step 03 of 04

Repair and Rebuild

New drywall goes in, then we tape, float and sand until the surface is flat and strong, with no ridges or seams showing.

Step 04 of 04

Match and Finish

We match the texture, prime the repair and blend the paint so the patch disappears in normal light. Then we clean up.

Any ceiling from before the mid-1980s should be tested for asbestos before it is disturbed. Once cleared, we remove the texture and refinish the ceiling smooth and ready for paint.

Paint Touch-Ups After Patching in Burbank

Paint touch-up is part of every repair. On walls with years of paint layers and faded sheen, we blend out to a natural edge so the repaired spot doesn’t stand out.

What Affects Drywall Repair Cost?

Size, Texture Match, Paint Match

Burbank repairs are priced by the number and size of damaged areas, plaster or drywall, how complex the texture is and how far the paint has to blend. Plaster that has pulled away from the lath has to be reattached first. Send 2-3 photos and you’ll get a quote before we book a visit.

Fastest way to get an accurate quote: text 3 photos – a wide shot of the room, a close-up of the damage, and a close-up of the wall texture. Include your city.

Drywall Repair: What We Handle

We repair drywall and plaster in Burbank houses, duplexes and apartments: settling and earthquake cracks, holes, water-stained ceilings, popcorn ceiling patches and access openings left after rewiring or repiping.
We’ll repair the drywall after the problem is fixed, but we don’t fix the underlying plumbing, roof or electrical issue itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers below to help you get your home back to a smooth, seamless finish.

Can you match the texture in my 1940s or 1950s Burbank home?

Yes. Homes from that era often have textures applied by hand with a trowel or brush, which a spray gun can’t copy. We work the pattern on the patch until it matches the wall around it, then prime and touch up the paint so the repair blends in.

Are the cracks in my Burbank home from the Northridge earthquake?

Some may be. Burbank shook strongly in 1994, and many older homes also have decades of settling cracks. Diagonal cracks at door and window corners and long cracks along ceiling seams are the usual signs. If a crack is wider than a pencil line or keeps growing, have a structural professional look at it first.

Should my Burbank popcorn ceiling be tested before you work on it?

If it was installed before the mid-1980s, yes. With 73% of Burbank homes built before 1980, that includes many ceilings in the city. Have a sample tested before anyone scrapes or sands it. When the result is clear, we can patch the damaged area or remove the texture and refinish the ceiling smooth.

Do you repair plaster walls in Burbank, or only drywall?

Both. Plaster that has cracked or pulled away from the lath is secured first, then patched and finished to match the surrounding wall. In homes with a mix of original plaster and newer drywall from past remodels, we match each surface to its own texture.

How much does drywall repair cost in Burbank?

Price depends on the size and number of damaged areas, plaster versus drywall, and the texture and paint blending involved. Text us 2-3 photos and we’ll reply with a quote, usually within about 10 minutes. Financing is available, with payments as low as $18 a month.

Do you work on Burbank rentals between tenants?

Yes. With 57% of Burbank homes rented, turnover patching is a regular need for owners and managers. Send photos of every damaged spot and we’ll price the unit as one job, then patch, texture and touch up so it’s ready to show.

How long does a repair visit take?

Most repairs take one visit of a few hours. Plaster work and larger ceiling repairs can need a second short visit so each coat dries before the next. We cover floors and furniture and clean up each time.
