We at Texora Painting & Drywall do drywall installation in Ladner, BC: basements, room additions and plaster replacement in older homes around Ladner Village (V4K). We hang, tape and finish to a paint-ready standard and can paint it after. 5.0 on Google from 50 reviews, with a 1, 2 or 3-year workmanship warranty.
Drywall installation in Ladner covers basement developments, additions where old lath and plaster is being replaced, and renovations that reconfigure walls. Poor taping or finishing shows the moment paint goes on. Our painters in Ladner page lists the rest of the work we do in town.
On the Fraser River delta, below-grade and ground-floor rooms in older Ladner homes pick up humidity, so bathrooms, basements and laundry rooms get moisture-resistant (green board) or mould-resistant (purple board) drywall, with a vapour barrier where required.
Our drywall installation pricing in Ladner runs $800–$2,500 per room depending on size, layout complexity, and finish level. That price includes hanging, taping, all mud coats, corner bead installation, sanding, and final preparation for paint. We can also paint the newly finished walls as part of the same project, with one crew and one invoice.
Ceilings go up before walls, so the wall board supports the ceiling edges, and seams are staggered row to row so no straight line runs the length of a wall. Every seam gets checked before mudding, while it's still easy to refasten.

“Called these guys for a deck project and they fit me into their schedule really quick. Got the job done fast and everything turned out great. Ended up asking them to do some reno work inside my house too, and they did an awesome job there as well. Shout out to Ruslan ,hardworking guy and easy to deal with. So far 2 out of 2 projects done great. Keep it up guys!”

We visit your Ladner home, assess the scope, check for moisture or framing concerns, and provide a detailed written quote covering hanging and finishing.
We select the right board type (standard, moisture-resistant, or fire-rated), cut precisely, and fasten securely to framing or furring strips.
All seams, screw holes, and corner beads are taped and mudded in multiple coats, feathered smooth between coats, and sanded to a flat, smooth surface.
Final sanding and dust cleanup leave your walls at Level 4 (or Level 5 on request), primed and ready for any paint colour or finish you choose.

Lath-and-plaster walls in the 1930s houses around Ladner Village can run close to an inch thick, while drywall is five-eighths or half an inch, so a new section set straight on the framing sits low and shows a step at every joint. Furring strips or an extra layer of board bring it out flush with the old wall.
Before any board goes up, framing spacing should be confirmed and insulation and electrical rough-in should be in place and inspected, because none of it is easy to fix once the wall is closed. Ask your contractor whether those checks happen before boarding or get assumed.
A hole, crack or section of water-damaged board is a repair rather than an install, and drywall repair in Ladner has its own page. For walls or ceilings that just need the finish redone, see our drywall taping and finishing page, and for matching an existing texture, our texture matching page.
The same workmanship warranty that covers our painting applies to installation work as well, so failures caused by our own workmanship, like failed tape or joints, are covered under the terms stated on your estimate.

In Ladner's delta damp, rooms with moisture get moisture-resistant, mould-resistant or fire-rated board as needed, not standard drywall.
Replacing plaster in an older Ladner home means matching wall thickness, transition points at existing surfaces and trim depths.
We install and finish the drywall, then paint it, as one project with one point of contact.
We use plastic sheeting to isolate work areas, sand with dust-collection tools where possible and clean up at the end of every session.
Once the drywall is done, we can paint it: walls, ceilings, trim and doors in your Ladner home.

Drywall installation in Ladner typically runs $800–$2,500 per room, depending on the room size, ceiling height, complexity of the layout (angled ceilings, bulkheads, curved walls), and the level of finish required. Basement developments tend to fall at the higher end due to utility chases and moisture-resistant board requirements. We provide a free written quote after viewing the space.
Yes, in most cases. Ladner's location on the Fraser River delta means below-grade spaces can get higher humidity and occasional moisture intrusion. We strongly recommend moisture-resistant (green board) or mould-resistant (purple board) drywall for any basement or below-grade application in the V4K area.
Drywall is five-eighths or half an inch, while lath-and-plaster walls in the 1930s houses around Ladner Village can run close to an inch thick. Furring strips or an extra layer of board bring a new section out flush with the old wall.
Most of the time goes into finishing: taping, mud coats with drying time between each, sanding and priming. Replacing plaster in an older Ladner home also means matching wall thickness, transition points and trim depths.
