Quality Work Worth Recommending

“Wade, a job well done! I will recommend you to my friends & neighbors.”

— Tom Mitzel, 2018

A customer's willingness to recommend a contractor to friends and neighbors is meaningful feedback. Varland Drywall works on residential drywall projects ranging from focused repairs to installation, finishing, ceilings, textures, plaster restoration, and remodeling drywall.

Basement Drywall and Texture Matching

“Basement looks great. You did a wonderful job matching up the textured walls.”

— Beth & Greg, 2017

Texture matching can be an important part of basement remodeling and other interior drywall projects. When newly finished or repaired drywall meets an existing textured wall, completing the underlying drywall work is only one part of the process. The surface finish also needs to be considered. Our Texture Matching & Custom Hand Textures service can be combined with Basement, Garage & Remodeling Drywall for applicable residential projects.

Custom Hand Texture for a Ceiling

“They came out in a timely manner to give us a quote. They also have many options in ceiling styles. We chose a hand texture style that friends and family consistently compliment us on. All in all, we received quality work that was finished in the set time given. I don’t hesitate to refer them to anyone I know.”

— Amy Peterson, 2016

Preparation and Care Inside the Home

“I really appreciate you taking the time to drape everything with plastic so we did not have a major dust storm of sheet rock dust in our house. You, and your employees, did an awesome job. If you ever need a reference, I will certainly be one.”

— Jean McBride, 2016

Drywall work can involve sanding and other stages that create dust. Jean's feedback specifically recognizes the preparation used during her project as well as the work performed by the Varland Drywall team. Customer feedback like this provides useful insight into the experience previous homeowners have had while drywall work was being completed inside their homes.

Drywall Taping and Finished Results

“Thank you for everything! Your tapers, Wade and Justin did an excellent job. It looks great!”

— Jeff Schramm, 2015


Taping is an important stage between drywall hanging and the finished surface. Our Taping & Mudding services address seams, corners, and fastener areas through the drywall finishing process. Joint tape and compound help prepare the transitions between drywall sheets. Additional finishing and sanding refine those areas as the surface moves toward its intended appearance. Jeff's testimonial specifically recognizes the work completed by Wade and Justin during his project.

Communication, Cleanliness, and Detailed Finishing

“I was talking to a master carpenter, trying to line up a few contractors for a bedroom remodel. He enthusiastically recommended Varland Drywall, saying they are outstanding! He was absolutely right! From start to finish, Wade communicated well with me. The men arrived when I was told they would, devoting consecutive days to the work, careful not to make a mess. Now that the job is finished, I’ve been priming the walls and the halogen lights I’m using reveals walls and ceilings that are just immaculate! These guys are perfectionists and I’m so pleased I went with them.”

— Bob Hackney, 2013


Bob's testimonial describes several aspects of his individual experience, including a professional recommendation, communication, cleanliness, and the appearance of his finished walls and ceilings. It also highlights something important about drywall finishing: broad walls and ceilings can reveal surface details under direct lighting. Professional hanging, taping, mudding, sanding, and finishing all contribute to the final appearance of a drywall surface.

Why Customer Feedback Matters

A finished drywall surface is only one part of a homeowner's experience with a contractor. The testimonials above mention workmanship, but they also provide firsthand feedback about communication, employees, preparation, scheduling, cleanliness, referrals, and the experience of seeing the finished walls and ceilings.

We present these comments as the customers gave them rather than turning individual experiences into promises about every future project. Your project will have its own scope, surface conditions, finishing requirements, and drywall needs. The best way to determine how Varland Drywall can help is to tell our team about the work you are planning.
