Drywall Contractor in Boise, Idaho
Older stock, plaster over lath, and popcorn. Not a Meridian subdivision hang.

Meridian Quality Drywall works as a drywall contractor in Boise, Idaho for repairs, popcorn scrapes, and new hangs on infill.
The housing is not one era. The North End and Hyde Park are 1890s to 1920s streetcar lots, often plaster. The Bench is postwar, 1/2-inch board, low lids, popcorn. Downtown infill has almost no drop zone. Warm Springs and the foothills change access more than they change the screw pattern. We hang and repair to that stock.
Drywall Contractor Services We Provide in Boise
Mixed-wall repair on plaster and gypsum
A fastener pop in a 2018 townhome and a crumbled plaster corner on a Warm Springs bungalow are not the same call. We name the substrate before we patch. Gypsum on failing plaster keys is a short-term hide. We say that before we mud.
Acoustic scrape on Bench lids
1960s through 1980s popcorn on the Bench. Test first. Then scrape or overlay. Eight-foot rooms make staging tight. The scrape exposes every tape holiday the bumps used to hide.
Infill hang downtown
Apartments and tight lots downtown. Metal or wood studs. Type X where the spec requires it. Almost no drop zone, so sheets come in by hand, not by a long carry from the curb.
Lid work under old plumbing
Galvanized lines above a North End stain soak gypsum. Soft board comes out after the leak is dead. Harris Ranch and west Boise toward Garden City mix this older plumbing with newer hangs.
Serving Boise and Nearby Areas
We work the North End, Hyde Park, the Bench, downtown, west Boise, Warm Springs, and out toward Garden City and Eagle . For Meridian production homes see the homepage . Nampa is a longer drive west.
Boise Drywall Questions
Do North End jobs need a plasterer or a gypsum crew?
If the wall is plaster on wood lath, a gypsum patch is a short hide. A full room coming off can be re-hung with board. Mixed walls need a finisher who can blend both.
Is popcorn removal common in Boise?
More than in Meridian. 1960s through 1980s houses on the Bench and in the west end still have acoustic lids. Test first on anything that might predate the mid-1980s.
How far is Boise from the Meridian hub?
About 10 miles east. Downtown, the North End, the Bench, and west Boise toward Garden City are on the regular list.
Do you need a City of Boise permit for interior gypsum?
Interior finish work is usually under the building permit already on a remodel. We follow the inspection order on that job. Ask the city on a historic North End remodel.
Call (208) 382-8431 with the Boise neighborhood and photos of the wall or lid.
Drywall Contractor Considerations for Boise Homes
Boise's North End and Hyde Park went in as streetcar neighborhoods. Wood lath and plaster still sit behind a lot of paint. A gypsum patch on failing plaster keys will not last if the keys are gone. We tell you that before we open a wall. The Bench went up after the war: lower lids, 1/2-inch board, popcorn that hid tape joints. Scraping that popcorn exposes every holiday. Staging matters because many of those rooms are 8 feet, not 10. West Boise toward Garden City adds more of this stock. Warm Springs, the Boise River corridor, and the foothills change access more than they change the fastener pattern. Picture rail and 9- or 10-foot North End lids add staging. Truss uplift is less of a Boise story than in 2000s Meridian truss roofs. Settlement and deferred maintenance are more of one. City of Boise permits and some historic overlay apply on certain North End remodels. We follow the inspection order on the job. Downtown infill is a TI as often as it is a house. We follow the finish schedule, not a subdivision knockdown. ACHD right-of-way and street trees do not change the interior hang, but they do change where a truck can sit. Tight downtown lots mean more hand-carry and less staging on the street. Harris Ranch infill and west Boise toward the river add tight lots where sheets come in by hand. We stage that as downtown work, not as a subdivision hang from a wide cul-de-sac.
