Drywall repair done right across Columbia & Boone County
Tiger Drywall Repair is a locally owned drywall repair specialist based in Columbia, Missouri. We focus on what most general contractors and handymen treat as a side job: invisible hole and patch repair, crack repair, water-damaged ceilings, nail pops, popcorn ceiling removal and texture matching for knockdown, orange peel and smooth finishes.
We're two University of Missouri students who learned the trade in a family drywall business and take real pride in a patch nobody can find. Homeowners, renters, landlords and property managers from the Old Southwest to Copperstone — and out to Ashland, Fulton and Jefferson City — get the same thing: a flat price up front, clean work, and a wall that looks like nothing ever happened.
Drywall is all we do
We're not splitting time across plumbing, decks and painting. Every hour we work, we get better at one craft — and it shows in the finish.
Patches you can't find
Texture, sheen and edges blended so the repair vanishes into the wall. If you can find it after paint, we come back.
Honest, flat-rate quotes
You know the price before we start. No hourly clock, no padded materials line, no surprises at the end.

What areas do you serve?

Do you fix holes in apartments before a move-out inspection?
Yes — it is one of our most common jobs around Mizzou. Text a photo of each hole and your move-out date; we quote one flat price for the whole unit and get it patched, textured and primed before your walkthrough. Landlords and property managers get per-unit turnover pricing.
Are you insured, and is the work guaranteed?
Tiger Drywall Repair carries liability insurance for residential drywall work, and we stand behind every repair: if a patch ever telegraphs back through the paint, we come back and make it right at no charge.
Do you paint after the repair?
Our standard scope is repair and texture matching — the patch is left primed and ready for paint, which most homeowners roll themselves or hand to their painter. If you'd rather we spot-paint, ask and we'll quote it up front.
