Our Residential Drywall Services
Drywall Installation
New drywall installation is the foundation of every interior build — whether it's a new home, addition, or gut renovation. A professional crew can hang, tape, mud, and finish an average room in 1–2 days. Properly installed drywall can last 50+ years with minimal maintenance.
Drywall Repair & Patching
From nail holes to fist-sized damage, drywall repair restores walls to a seamless, paint-ready finish. Over 90% of homeowners deal with drywall damage at some point due to settling, impact, or moisture. A quality repair is virtually invisible when done right.
Basement Drywall
Finishing a basement with drywall is one of the highest ROI home improvements, returning up to 70–75% of the project cost at resale. Basements require moisture-resistant drywall to prevent mold and structural damage over time. A professionally finished basement also adds significant livable square footage to a home.
Drywall Taping & Mudding
Taping and mudding is where the quality of a drywall job is truly determined — bad tape jobs show up months later as cracks and bubbles. A proper three-coat mud process takes 2–3 days to complete when done correctly with adequate dry time between coats. Skipping steps in this stage accounts for the majority of drywall callbacks in the industry.
Ceiling Drywall & Texture
Ceiling installation is one of the most technically demanding drywall jobs, requiring precision to avoid sagging, cracking, or uneven seams. Textured ceilings like smooth, skip trowel, or knockdown finishes can dramatically improve the aesthetic of any room. Improperly hung ceiling drywall is one of the top complaints in residential construction.
Water-Damaged Drywall Replacement
Water damage is the #1 cause of drywall replacement, with over 14,000 water damage incidents occurring in Canadian homes every day. Wet drywall loses structural integrity within 24–48 hours and becomes a breeding ground for mold if not replaced promptly. Full replacement with moisture-resistant board is always recommended over patching water-damaged sections.
Our Commercial Drywall Services
Steel Stud Framing
Commercial interiors are built on steel stud framing rather than wood, offering superior straightness, fire resistance, and dimensional stability. Steel framing does not warp, rot, or attract pests, making it the standard for office buildings, retail spaces, and institutional projects. A properly framed commercial space can reduce long-term maintenance costs by up to 30% compared to wood framing.
Tenant Improvement (TI) Buildouts
Tenant improvements involve transforming raw or previously occupied commercial space into a functional, finished interior for a new occupant. TI work accounts for a significant portion of commercial drywall revenue, particularly in office, retail, and medical sectors. A fast, quality TI crew can be the difference between a tenant opening on time or losing weeks of revenue waiting on a slow contractor.
Exterior Sheathing & Curtain Wall Backing
Commercial buildings require drywall sheathing behind exterior cladding systems to provide a continuous air and moisture barrier. Properly installed sheathing reduces building envelope failures, which are responsible for over 80% of commercial construction defect claims in North America. Using the correct board type and installation method at this stage protects the entire building system from the outside in.

Winnipeg Quality Drywall Process
Step 1: Detailed Professional Drywall and Site Inspection
We'll start with a thorough inspection of the site conducted by our certified Drywall specialists. We carefully assess your drywall condition, identifying damage that may impact your home’s safety. During this visit, we document all findings with photos and detailed notes to ensure complete transparency. This step typically takes 1–2 hours, depending on the size and complexity of the drywall project. At this stage, we'll determine whether you need a full drywall replacement or just targeted repairs.
Step 2: Transparent, No-Surprise Quote
Following the inspection, we'll prepare a detailed, itemized quote outlining every aspect of your drywall project — materials, labour, timeline, and any additional considerations identified during the assessment. We believe every homeowner deserves to know exactly where their money is going before a single sheet of drywall is touched. Our quotes are straightforward, honest, and free of hidden fees or vague line items that leave you guessing. You'll typically receive your written quote within 24 hours of the inspection, giving you time to review it without pressure. If you have questions about any line item, our team is available to walk you through it in plain language until you're fully confident moving forward.
Step 3: Old Roof Removal & New Roof Installation
Once you've approved the quote, our certified crew arrives on schedule, fully equipped to remove any damaged or outdated drywall quickly and cleanly. We take careful measures to protect your floors, furniture, and surrounding surfaces before any demolition begins — plastic sheeting, drop cloths, and dust barriers are standard on every job. Old drywall is removed methodically to avoid unnecessary damage to framing, insulation, or electrical behind the walls. Once the space is cleared and inspected, we move straight into hanging new drywall using the correct board type for your specific application — whether that's moisture-resistant, fire-rated, or standard. Every sheet is measured, cut, and fastened to manufacturer specifications to ensure a solid, even foundation for the finishing work that follows. Depending on the size of the project, installation is typically completed within one to three days.
Step 4: Final Drywall Inspection and Warranty Walk-Through
Before we consider any job complete, our lead technician conducts a thorough final inspection of every wall, ceiling, and finished surface to ensure the work meets our quality standards and yours. We check for uniformity in finish level, clean corners and edges, seamless tape lines, and a surface that is fully paint-ready with zero imperfections. If anything falls short of what was outlined in your quote or agreed upon during the project, we address it on the spot — no pushback, no excuses. Once the inspection is complete, we walk you through the finished work in person so you can see every area we touched and ask any questions before we pack up. At this stage we also review your warranty coverage in detail, explaining exactly what is protected, for how long, and how to reach us if anything comes up down the road. We don't consider the job done until you've signed off and are completely satisfied with the result.

Basement Drywall Finishing
"I had Winnipeg Quality Drywall finish my entire basement in Lindenwoods and I honestly couldn't be happier with how it turned out. They showed up on time every single day, kept the mess contained, and the finish on the walls is absolutely flawless. My basement went from a cold, unfinished space to something that looks like it belongs in a show home. I've already referred them to two of my neighbours and I wouldn't hesitate to call them again."
