What drywall work does Hoosier Boys do in Valparaiso?
Hoosier Boys Painting and Drywall installs, repairs and replaces drywall across Valparaiso, Chesterton, Portage and Hobart, using a dedicated drywall crew rather than painters filling in between jobs. That covers remodels, additions and basements, plus repairs to holes, cracks, dents and damaged surfaces. It also covers water-damage restoration: removing and replacing damaged drywall, treating and painting stains, responding after storms, and restoring a full basement as one package of drywall, priming and painting rather than a patch here and there. Ceilings are handled as installation, repair or replacement. The workmanship warranty is tied to the finish level rather than being one flat promise: one year on patches and cracks, two years on a Level 4 finish, three years on a Level 5. Our minimum project is $1,000, and every scope is written down before work starts.

What homeowners say about our drywall work
Verbatim from Google. Nothing edited.
Michael and the team at Hoosier Boys Painting and Drywall did a great job repairing and sanding my drywall in Valparaiso to prep it for painting. They were professional, responsive, and took the time to explain the work clearly. I appreciated the attention to detail and the quality of the finished prep work.
Michael and team did a great job on my house. Hoosier Boys did level 5 drywall, drywall repair, repairing and patching any minor imperfections in my walls and trim, and recommended the perfect paint color to use in the home. They are perfectionists and it shows, they will go the extra mile for you.
I was collecting a few quotes for a ceiling drywall repair, and one of the companies (rather than taking the job themselves) recommended I hire Hoosier Boys for the job due to quality of work and better pricing. Michael and his team came out quickly and did a great job, I would hire them again for the future.
Mike and his team did a great job at my property. This home needed a total makeover which included drywall repair, drywall installation and painting among other things. Mike was able to complete this work at a reasonable price and made the house look new again.
