Drywall Repair
Doorknob holes, furniture damage, cracked corners, failed old patches. The repair itself is the easy part — getting it to disappear under paint is the work.

Denver work splits cleanly in two. The pre-war neighborhoods bring plaster, lath, and settled cracking; the newer infill and downtown conversions bring smooth Level 5 walls where there is nowhere for a repair to hide.
What Denver houses tend to throw at us
Bungalows and four-squares with original plaster through the older core, mid-century ranches out through the southeast, and modern smooth-finish drywall in scrapes, townhomes, and converted lofts.
Which matters, because the repair method follows the wall. Texture density, whether the surface is drywall or plaster, and how much the structure moves seasonally all change how a patch has to be worked to stay invisible.

Questions
Drywall repair in Denver, answered.
My house is plaster, not drywall. Can you still repair it?
Yes, and it matters that you asked. Plaster over lath is common in Denver homes built before roughly 1950. A repair that treats it as drywall will crack out at the edges. The right approach keys the new material into the existing plaster rather than butting it against the face.
Smooth walls in my loft show everything. Is a patch even possible?
Possible, but it is the most demanding surface there is. A Level 5 wall has no texture to disguise a transition, so the repair depends entirely on how flat the compound is sanded and how wide it is feathered. Expect more coats and more drying time than a textured wall would need.
Why does texture matching matter so much?
Because texture is what your eye reads first. A patch can be perfectly flat and still announce itself if the orange peel around it is heavier, or the knockdown is flatter, or the surface is smooth where the wall has a subtle spatter. Matching it is the difference between a repair and a patch.
Do you paint after the repair?
We leave the repair paint-ready — primed where it needs to be, textured to match, and cleaned up. Painting is a separate trade. If you want the area painted too, mention it early so we can talk through what it takes to avoid a visible touch-up square.
