Drywall Contractor in San Marcos, TX
South of Kyle on I-35, San Marcos homes and rentals see hard use. We repair, update and refinish the walls, floors and baths that take the wear.
San Marcos: a college town with older housing
San Marcos is the seat of Hays County and the home of Texas State University, which was founded in 1899 as a teacher training school and now enrolls tens of thousands of students. That shapes the housing market. A large share of homes and apartments around the university are rentals, and landlords and investors need walls repaired, floors replaced and bathrooms refreshed between tenants, quickly and at a sensible cost.
Alongside the rentals are older family neighborhoods near the Hays County courthouse square, the springs and the San Marcos River, with houses built decades before the I-35 corridor filled in. These homes have older drywall, patched plaster, mixed textures and sometimes moisture issues from the river valley. The Memorial Day 2015 flood on the Blanco River damaged homes in and around San Marcos, and a number of repairs from that era still show their history.
Our work here is practical: fix damaged walls so they hold paint, replace worn flooring with something tough, and update bathrooms that have taken years of hard use. The drive down I-35 from Kyle is short, so smaller jobs make sense too.

- Rental turnover.Properties near Texas State often need fast, durable repairs between leases. Matching existing finishes and keeping downtime short matter more than perfect custom work.
- River valley moisture.Homes near the San Marcos River and the Blanco River can have moisture and flood history. We check walls and slabs for water before covering them.
- Older construction.Housing near the courthouse square and original neighborhoods is older and more varied. Patched plaster, mixed textures and out-of-square walls are common.
- Historic areas.Some older districts have preservation guidelines that affect exterior work. Check with the city before changing the outside of a historic house.
- Permits through the city.Structural, electrical and plumbing work generally needs permits, and San Marcos has its own building department. We confirm what applies to your project.
