"Stallman Drywall did an incredible job matching the knockdown texture in our living room after we had some water damage repaired. You literally cannot tell where the patch is — it blends perfectly with the original texture from 20 years ago. Very impressed with their skill and attention to detail."
"Had them remove popcorn ceilings throughout our entire home and apply orange peel texture. The transformation is amazing — our 1980s home looks completely modern now. They were neat, professional, and finished ahead of schedule. Highly recommend for any texture work."
"We hired Stallman Drywall to texture our newly finished basement. They helped us choose the right texture style and the application was flawless. The crew was friendly, cleaned up thoroughly, and the price was very fair. Will definitely use them again."
Most texturing runs $1.00 to $2.00 per square foot for labor and materials. Sprayed textures like orange peel and knockdown are on the lower end ($0.80–$1.50/sq. ft.), while hand-applied textures like skip trowel cost more ($1.50–$2.00/sq. ft.). A typical 500 sq. ft. room runs $450–$1,200 depending on texture type and prep work needed. Ceilings cost a bit more than walls. Popcorn removal adds to the price since we're scraping before retexturing.
Texture is typically applied over a Level 3 or Level 4 drywall finish, depending on how heavy the texture is — heavier textures like knockdown are more forgiving, while lighter textures need a smoother base.

Yes, popcorn ceiling removal is one of our most popular services throughout West Central Minnesota. We safely scrape and remove outdated acoustic texture with proper containment and dust control, then apply your choice of modern texture or smooth finish. For homes built before 1980, we recommend asbestos testing before removal — we can help coordinate this if needed. The transformation modernizes your home instantly and is well worth the investment.
Yes, texture matching is one of our specialties. We carefully analyze your existing texture pattern, application technique, and thickness to create seamless repairs that blend invisibly with surrounding surfaces. This skill is essential for drywall repairs after water damage, home additions that need to match existing rooms, and remodels where walls are modified. We've successfully matched textures in homes throughout West Central Minnesota, including patterns applied decades ago.
