Every drywall & carpentry project is handled by licensed, insured crews with the same prep-first standard, so the result actually lasts.
Most drywall repairs run $250 to $900 depending on the size and number of areas, texture matching, and whether painting is included. Small patches are on the lower end; larger water-damage repairs that involve replacing sections cost more. We quote every repair fixed and in writing.
Yes. We're a one-stop shop for the light construction around a paint job: drywall installation and repair, molding and trim, shutter repair, minor plaster, stucco patching, and wood replacement. Our own carpenters do the work, so we don't hand it off to other contractors.
Yes. Matching texture is what makes a repair invisible. We feather the patch, match the surrounding texture, whether smooth, orange-peel, or knockdown, then prime and paint so you can't tell where the damage was.

Reviews
Everyone on the team was professional, prompt and responsive. Luis explained the entire process and Mel's follow-through was exceptional. They delivered on the look and feel we wanted, and we would recommend their service to anyone who owns well constructed cabinets but wants to give them a refreshing new life. The original dark cabinets showed all the fingerprints, grease and dust, but the new white finish has stronger enamel protection and is much easier to clean and maintain. And it was way more cost effective than a complete remodel, we are very happy with the results!
I called Lifetime Painting (referred by One Day Door and Closets) and met with Luis within a few days I was happy and excepted their bid. Gabriel and Carlos were wonderful to work with. They were professional, friendly and prompt everyday. I had my popcorn ceiling remove, textured and painted. I could not ask for a better job. They also painted a large living room, hallway and all my doors. Gabriel was very thorough and went above and beyond to make sure everything was done to my satisfaction. Albert replaced all my door handles for me and I appreciated Pablo came to finish all the final little touch ups. I am very happy with their work and would highly recommend them. I hope to use them again.
We are so happy with the work Lifetime Custom Painting did on our home! They painted our interior and part of the exterior, installed new baseboards, replaced the upstairs flooring, installed new vanities/toilets and completely redid our banister. Everything turned out beautiful and the attention to detail was excellent. Pablo, the project manager, was especially great to work with — professional, responsive, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Highly recommend!
Straight answers about drywall & carpentry in San Diego, from a team that's painted local homes since 2007.
Yes. We cut out and replace damaged drywall, rematch the texture, and repaint. If the source is an active leak, we'll flag it. For full water-damage restoration including drying and mold prevention, see our restoration service.
Yes. A patch isn't finished until it disappears. We prime and paint the repaired area, feathering into the existing wall, and can repaint the full wall or room if you want a perfect, seamless match.
No. Our own W-2 drywall and carpentry crews do the work, which is how we keep quality and scheduling tight and stand behind every repair.
