Gulfport Drywall Repair fixes the walls and ceilings that Gulf Coast weather ruins. Roof leaks under wind-driven rain, AC condensate lines that drip through a bedroom ceiling, bathrooms that never dry out in August, and the holes and cracks every house collects. We are the sheetrock repair crew that checks the framing with a moisture meter before a single screw goes in.
Our work runs from storm and water damage rebuilds and mold-resistant bathroom walls to everyday patching, ceiling repair, knockdown texture matching, and new drywall for raised homes and remodels. Harrison, Hancock, and Jackson Counties, from Waveland to Pascagoula and north to Wiggins.
Storm and water damage calls get a site visit within 48 hours. Everything else is on the calendar inside a week.
Is it dry yet? Start there.
Most sheetrock damage on the coast is water damage wearing a disguise. A brown ring on the ceiling, a wall that feels cool and soft, tape lifting along a seam, paint bubbling near the baseboard. Before we patch anything we find the water and confirm the framing has dried below 15 percent on a meter. Skip that and you are paying for the same water damage repair twice. If the source is a roof, a window, or an AC line, we tell you who to call and we come back when it is fixed.
What we fix most in Gulfport homes
Ceilings under leaking roofs and condensate lines, walls behind showers that have gone soft, cracks along seams in the post-Katrina subdivisions as the framing settles, holes and dings in rentals between tenants, and knockdown texture that a previous repair never matched. Older ranch homes north of the tracks add popcorn ceilings to the list.
After a storm
When a named storm or a bad squall line comes through, the calls come in waves. Wind-driven rain gets under shingles and soffits and shows up on ceilings days later. We prioritize storm damage visits inside 48 hours, document everything for your wind or flood claim, cut out what is wet, dry the cavity, and rebuild with the right board. We do not hang new sheetrock over a wet wall to make a house look finished faster.
Why the right board matters more here than inland
Gulfport averages well over 60 inches of rain a year and the dew point sits in the 70s all summer. Standard paper-faced drywall in a bathroom, laundry, or an exterior wall with a small leak will grow mold behind the paint. We use mold- and moisture-resistant board in wet rooms, cement board behind tile, and we leave a gap at the slab so nothing wicks. A few dollars a sheet more, and the repair does not come back the following August.
How we price a job
Number of repairs, size of the largest, texture on the wall, whether anything behind the wall is wet, and whether you want paint. That is the whole formula. You get one itemized written estimate, with photos, before work starts. If we open a wall and find more damage than we quoted, we stop and call. The ballpark table on this page is there so you can sanity-check anyone’s number, including ours.

Gulfport Sheetrock Repair: What Jobs Usually Run
Gulfport-specific cost data puts a typical repair near $500, with small patches around $150 to $230 and large multi-room jobs from $600 up. National 2026 surveys (Angi, HomeAdvisor, HomeGuide, Homewyse) land in the same band. Use these as ballpark figures before you call. Rates below are starting points and can change.
Ballpark figures only, not an offer. Prices change with materials, access, moisture damage found behind the wall, and whether paint is included. Nothing is final until you have an itemized written estimate in hand.
Military moves and rental turnovers
Between Keesler, the Seabee base, and the shipyards, a lot of Gulf Coast housing turns over every summer. Our move-out repair service patches every hole, ding, and TV-mount scar in a unit, matches the texture, primes, and hands you photos for the deposit file or the housing inspection. Landlords with several units get one agreed rate and skip the estimate step.
Where we work
Gulfport is home base. From here we cover Biloxi and D’Iberville across the bay, Long Beach and Pass Christian down Highway 90, Bay St. Louis, Waveland, and Diamondhead in Hancock County, Ocean Springs, Gautier, Pascagoula, and Moss Point in Jackson County, and north up Highway 49 to Saucier and Wiggins.
Casinos, hotels, clinics, and storefronts
Commercial walls on the coast take abuse from luggage carts, housekeeping equipment, and constant tenant changes. Our commercial and hospitality crew works overnight in hotel and casino back-of-house corridors, medical suites near Memorial Hospital, and retail along Highway 49, and rebuilds fire-rated corridor walls with Type X board so the rating survives the repair.
Sheetrock, drywall, gypsum board: same thing
Around here people say sheetrock. It is a brand name for gypsum board, the same product every supplier sells. What changes is the face: standard paper, moisture-resistant green, mold-resistant purple, and fire-rated Type X. Knowing which one belongs in which room is most of what separates a repair that holds in coastal humidity from one that does not. We spell out the board type on every estimate.

Call 228-555-0173 or send photos through the form. Small jobs are usually priced from the photos the same day. Anything involving water gets a site visit with a meter first, because a number without a moisture reading is a guess.

Drywall Repair in Gulfport: Questions We Get
What does sheetrock repair cost in Gulfport?
Gulfport-area data puts small patches around $150 to $230 and a typical job near $500. Our starting points: a service call for a few small holes around $175, a doorknob-size patch roughly $225 to $425, a replaced wall or ceiling section roughly $400 to $850 per sheet, and storm or leak-damaged ceilings roughly $550 to $1,800. These are ballparks and can change; the written estimate is the real number.
How soon can you come out after a storm?
Storm and water damage visits are scheduled within 48 hours across Harrison, Hancock, and Jackson Counties. After a named storm we run a waiting list in the order calls came in.
Do you replace the drywall or just paint over the stain?
Depends on the meter. Dry, firm drywall with a stain gets sealed with a stain-blocking primer. Anything soft, sagging, or reading wet is cut out and replaced. We do not paint over wet board.
Will you work with my insurance adjuster?
Yes. Every estimate is itemized with photos, and we match line items to the adjuster’s scope when asked. We repair walls; we do not negotiate your claim.
Can you match my knockdown texture?
Yes. Most post-2005 homes on the coast have knockdown or orange peel. The patch gets sprayed with a halo past its edges, knocked down on the same count the original crew used, and painted to a break so nothing shows.
Do you handle military move-out repairs?
Yes. We patch, texture, and prime rental units and base-adjacent housing before inspection, usually in one visit, and send photos for the deposit or housing office file.
