Matching Bakersfield texture
Most Bakersfield homes have a sprayed texture on walls and ceilings, and a smooth patch in a textured wall stands out from across the room. The texture is matched before paint so the repair does not show.
Gabriel is based at 5008 Gaylene Ave in southeast Bakersfield and takes drywall jobs across Bakersfield and Kern County.

Drywall questions
Can you match my wall texture?
Yes. Common textures like orange peel and knockdown can be matched so a repair blends in once it is painted.
Should I replace or patch a water-stained ceiling?
If the drywall is soft or sagging, it should be replaced. If it is firm and only stained, sealing and repainting may be enough. Either way, the leak gets found first.
Do you paint after drywall?
Drywall is left paint-ready. Ask about paint at the estimate if you want the room finished start to end.
