What drywall costs around Mission
Professional drywall repair commonly runs $150 to $2,000 depending on the size of the damage, with small patches at the low end and a ceiling replacement at the high end. Per square foot, small jobs cost the most because setup and texture matching dominate the time.
Ask for the quote itemized: hanging, tape and float, texture, and cleanup and haul off. A single number hides which of those is actually included, and the difference shows up at the end.

What these eight companies actually look like
Read those counts carefully rather than skimming: one company here has 87 reviews and another has 3. Both may be good, but a long history tells you how a company behaves when a job goes wrong, which is the part that matters. A short one simply means you should ask for recent work you can go and look at.
Six take commercial work alongside residential and six have a website you can check before calling.
This page is the short list. If you want the full directory, every drywall company we list across the Valley is on one page with ratings and service areas.
Mission and the weather it throws at you
The upper Valley runs hot and dry for most of the year, with the spring hail that comes through Hidalgo County as the main sudden risk. Crews here cover several cities a day, so travel is rarely the constraint; scheduling is.
Deal with the water first
Most residential drywall calls here follow water: a roof leak, an air conditioning drain line that backed up, or a plumbing failure behind a wall. Closing up a wall before the source is fixed and the cavity has dried means doing the job twice, and sometimes means mold.
Drywall is not a licensed trade in Texas. The quality question is the finish: whether seams disappear and whether a patch matches the texture around it. Ask to see a finished room rather than a quote alone.
Questions worth asking before you sign
- Is the water source fixed, and is the cavity dry?
- Does the price include tape, float, texture and cleanup?
- Can you match the existing texture?
- Will you prime the repair, and is paint included?
- How long until it is ready to paint?
- Who removes the debris?
Our guides for Valley homeowners cover costs, hiring and what goes wrong across every trade we list.
Common questions
How much does drywall repair cost in Mission?
Professional repairs commonly run $150 to $2,000 depending on the size of the damage. Small patches cost the most per square foot because setup and texture matching take the time.
Can a patch match my existing texture?
Usually, but ask directly before booking. Knockdown and orange peel finishes can be matched well by an experienced hand; a flat patch next to a textured wall is obvious from across the room.
Should I fix the leak first?
Always. Closing a wall before the source is repaired and the cavity has dried means paying twice, and in this humidity it invites mold.
Is drywall a licensed trade in Texas?
No. Judge it on finished work instead: ask to see a completed room and get the quote itemized into hanging, tape and float, texture and cleanup.
Should I hire a Mission company or one from the next town?
Both are on this page. A local company is usually easier to reach for small jobs and for warranty work later, while the larger operations nearby run more crews and can often start sooner. Call one of each and compare what they put in writing.
