Drywall Texturing in Metro Detroit: what to expect
Drywall texturing adds a pattern to walls or ceilings, such as orange peel, knockdown, skip trowel or a hand-troweled look. Texture hides small flaws and adds character. The harder job is matching existing texture after a repair so the patch disappears.
Texture is sprayed or hand applied over finished, primed drywall, then painted. If you are adding texture to an older ceiling or wall, test the existing surface first. EPA notes that textured paint and patching compounds used on walls and ceilings may contain asbestos, and homes built before 1978 may have lead paint. If you want smooth walls instead of texture, see skim coating.
What a proper job includes
- Review of the existing texture and sample boards to match
- Testing of older textured surfaces before disturbing them
- Room masking and floor protection
- Surface primed so texture bonds evenly
- Texture sprayed or hand applied to the agreed pattern
- Blending into surrounding areas for repairs
- Cleanup, with paint if included
What drives the price
- Square footage and wall or ceiling location
- Texture pattern and hand-applied versus sprayed
- Matching an existing texture on a repair
- Masking needed in a furnished room
- Test results on older textured surfaces
- Primer and paint included or not

Permits and licensing in Michigan
Texturing is finish work and does not usually need a building permit. In homes built before 1978, cutting, sanding or removing painted drywall or plaster beyond EPA's minor repair limit (6 square feet per room inside) requires an EPA lead-safe certified firm under the Renovation, Repair and Painting rule. If testing finds asbestos in an existing texture, removal must be done by a contractor licensed through the MIOSHA Asbestos Program.
Drywall is not listed as its own Maintenance & Alteration trade by LARA. For paid residential work above a threshold set by state law, look for a LARA Residential Builder license, or ask the contractor which license covers the job, and check the number on the LARA lookup.

How to compare quotes
- Ask for a sample board or small test area to approve the pattern.
- Ask whether they test older textures before sanding or removing.
- Confirm masking, cleanup and paint terms in writing.
- Ask for EPA lead-safe certification if the home was built before 1978.
- Check the license on the LARA lookup and ask for proof of insurance.
