Serving Etobicoke Since 2002

Drywall Repair & Installation in Etobicoke, ON

Long Branch and Mimico's pre-1950 brick homes with humidity-damaged drywall from Lake Ontario proximity, The Kingsway's 1920s-1940s homes with original plaster and high-end finish expectations, and Humber Bay Shores condo towers with ceiling damage from plumbing leaks above - each demands a different approach. Toronto Drywall Pro handles drywall repair and finishing matched to Etobicoke's housing stock.

Drywall Problems in Etobicoke? Fast Help Available

We've spent 22 years on GTA homes and condos. These are the four issues that drive most calls - and they're the four we specialise in.

01

Your Mimico Water-Damage Ceiling

Lake-facing buildings and older waterfront homes in Mimico and Long Branch see above-average rates of roof and flashing leak damage that saturates ceiling drywall. We verify full dryness with moisture meters before installing replacement panels.

02

Your Kingsway Level 5 Finish

Custom homes and renovations in The Kingsway and Humber Valley Village consistently specify Level 5 skim coat for high-gloss and satin paint finishes on feature walls and open-plan ceilings where raking light reveals any surface imperfection.

03

Your Rexdale Legal Suite

1960s bungalows in Rexdale and Thistletown have large unfinished basements suitable for legal-suite conversion. Code-compliant finishing requires vapour barrier, steel-stud framing set away from the foundation wall, and moisture-resistant Green Board on all below-grade surfaces.

04

Your Humber Bay Condo Screw Pop

High-rise condo towers at Humber Bay Shores built between 2010 and 2020 report recurring screw pops and hairline cracks in years 3 to 7 as the concrete frame deflects. Repairs require feathering compound to match the existing finish rather than panel replacement.

What Etobicoke Clients Say

4.9 based on 127+ reviews

“The popcorn ceiling removal was unbelievable. They told us their dustless process was the real deal and they weren't kidding - we lived in the house through the whole job and not a speck of plaster on the floor. Smooth ceiling, paint-ready, done in two days.”

Sarah Miller

“Burst pipe behind the kitchen wall on a Saturday. They came out Monday morning, documented everything for our insurance, removed the wet panels, and had it back to paint-ready by Friday. Honestly the easiest part of the whole insurance claim.”

James Davidson
Oakville - water damage ceiling and wall repair

“We had three contractors quote our basement. Toronto Drywall Pro was the only one who showed up with a tape measure, walked the whole space, and explained the difference between Green Board and Purple Board. Final job came in exactly at quote.”

Local Expertise

Post-War and Mid-Century Drywall Expertise

Toronto Drywall Pro provides drywall installation, drywall repair, popcorn ceiling removal, basement finishing, taping and finishing, metal framing, partition walls, fire-resistant drywall, acoustic drywall, commercial drywall, and water damage drywall repair in Etobicoke, Ontario. Our crew covers all of Etobicoke from Rexdale in the north to Long Branch and Mimico on the waterfront, handling post-war bungalows, Kingsway custom homes, and Humber Bay Shores condos with the same single in-house team.

Etobicoke is the western district of the amalgamated City of Toronto, covering approximately 194 square kilometres with a population of around 345,000. The area runs from the Humber River west to the city boundary and from Lake Ontario north to Steeles. Major institutions include Humber College (North and Lakeshore campuses), Etobicoke General Hospital, and Pearson International Airport, which is located immediately north. The housing stock is one of the most diverse in the GTA: post-war (1945 to 1965) bungalows and split-levels dominate southern Etobicoke, mid-century custom homes characterise The Kingsway and Humber Valley Village, and newer condo towers have been rising at Humber Bay Shores since 2010.

We provide drywall services in Mimico, The Kingsway, Humber Bay Shores, Rexdale, Long Branch, and Islington Village. Humber Bay Shores condo towers built between 2010 and 2020 report recurring screw pops and hairline cracks at 3 to 7 years as concrete frames continue their long-cycle deflection - a common pattern in high-rise construction that requires feathering and compound matching rather than full panel replacement.

Local FAQ

Etobicoke Drywall Questions Answered

Do you serve all of Etobicoke including Rexdale, Mimico, and The Kingsway?

Yes. We cover all of Etobicoke from Rexdale and Humber Summit in the north to Long Branch and Mimico on the waterfront, including The Kingsway, Humber Valley Village, Islington Village, and Humber Bay Shores. Most Etobicoke jobs get same-week scheduling.

What drywall panels do you use for Etobicoke basement finishing?

For Etobicoke basements we use moisture-resistant Green Board on all below-grade exterior walls and Purple Board in bathroom wet areas. Steel-stud framing is set away from the foundation wall with a drainage gap, and a 6-mil poly vapour barrier is installed across the interior face before drywall goes up. Standard 1/2-inch panels are used on interior partitions above the slab.

Do pre-1960 Etobicoke homes need asbestos testing before drywall work?

For any drywall demo or popcorn ceiling scraping in an Etobicoke home built before 1980, we test first. Post-war bungalows in Mimico, Long Branch, and Rexdale built between 1945 and 1965 often have acoustic spray texture or joint compound formulations that may contain asbestos. We coordinate sampling and abatement before starting any demo scope.

How do you handle drywall repairs in Humber Bay Shores condo towers?

Humber Bay condo repairs require elevator booking, corridor protection, and compliance with building work-hour restrictions. We coordinate all of this with property management before mobilising. Screw pop and hairline crack repairs in newer Humber Bay towers are treated with feathering compound matched to the existing Level 4 finish rather than panel replacement.

What permits are required for basement finishing in Etobicoke?

The City of Toronto requires a building permit for Etobicoke basement finishing that includes new walls, electrical, plumbing, or creation of a secondary suite. The permit process triggers framing, insulation, rough-in mechanical, fire-separation, and final occupancy inspections. We coordinate the permit inspection timing with our installation schedule.

Can you do Level 5 finish for Kingsway and Humber Valley renovation projects?

Yes. Level 5 skim coat is standard on custom renovation projects in The Kingsway and Humber Valley Village where satin and semi-gloss paints and raking window light are specified. We apply a full skim coat over the entire panel surface after the standard three-coat Level 4 base, sand to a mirror-flat finish, and do a raked-light walk-through before handover.

How long does water damage drywall repair take in an Etobicoke home?

A typical Etobicoke water damage repair (ceiling section from a roof or plumbing leak) runs 2 to 4 working days: one day for demo and dry-out assessment, one to two days for new panel installation and tape, one day for finish coats and sanding. Larger multi-room water damage runs 5 to 10 working days depending on scope.

Do you work in Etobicoke during occupied home renovations?

Yes. Most Etobicoke residential drywall projects are done in occupied homes. We use HEPA-filtered dustless sanding, floor protection at all traffic paths, and plastic containment at doorways to keep the rest of the home liveable during the project. We give you a daily schedule so you know which rooms are active each day.
