Why is drywall repair different in East County San Diego?

Older housing stock in El Cajon and La Mesa means you'll find a mix of drywall and older plaster-over-lath walls in the same house. Patches in these homes often require a skim coat rather than a simple compound fill because the original walls have slight texture built up over decades of repaints.

  • Small hole in wall repair (nail pops, doorknob holes, anchor pull-outs)
