Price

What drives the cost of drywall repair and painting in Clarkston

  • Number and size of holes, cracks and damaged areas
  • Drywall versus plaster and lath walls
  • Texture matching on walls or ceilings
  • How many full walls or ceilings need repainting
  • Water damage that needs drying or replacement first
  • Ceiling height and access
  • Lead-safe practices in homes built before 1978
  • The age of the home: the typical Clarkston home was built around 1957, so older materials, lead-safe rules and hidden damage can add time

Before you hire in Clarkston

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Clarkston was built around 1957. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.

Older plumbing and sewer lines

55% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.

Permits: check with the Clarkston building department before work starts.

Compare quotes

  • Ask how they match texture on ceilings and older walls.
  • For pre-1978 homes, check EPA lead-safe firm certification.
  • Confirm cleanup, dust control and the number of visits needed for mud to dry.
