Clean finished interior walls in a remodeled home

Our drywall specialist has 20 years of experience in installation, finishing and repairs. We prepare flat surfaces, finish corners and match surrounding textures.

We hang, tape, texture and finish drywall for remodels and standalone projects, including repairs to existing walls and ceilings.

Planning your project in Berkeley

We offer remodeling services for Berkeley's older homes, with attention to existing materials and current code requirements.

The local housing includes brown-shingle and Craftsman homes, a great many built before 1930. Older homes may have lath and plaster alongside drywall. We identify the existing materials and plan repairs and texture blending accordingly.

We serve Berkeley, including Elmwood, North Berkeley, Claremont and Westbrae. Project planning here accounts for century-old framing, knob-and-tube remnants and strict local review. Seasonal movement can cause recurring cracks. We assess the surrounding surfaces before planning the repair.

Permits and inspections in Berkeley

Permits for work in Berkeley go through the City of Berkeley Permit Service Center. Drywall work is typically permit-exempt unless it accompanies structural or electrical changes, so repairs can often start within days. We handle the permit application and coordinate inspections.

Frequently asked questions

Can you match my existing wall texture?

Yes. AZ Elevated Builders matches existing wall textures. Orange peel, knockdown, hand troweled or smooth, the patch should disappear after paint.

Do you remove popcorn ceilings in Berkeley?

Yes, with one important step first. On any home built before 1978 the ceiling texture must be tested for asbestos before removal. If it tests positive we bring in a certified abatement contractor; if it is clean, our crew scrapes, skims and refinishes to a smooth or light texture in Berkeley. We leave the room ready for paint.

How fast can a repair be done?

Small patches are often same-day with a return visit for texture and touch-up after drying. Larger repairs run 2–4 days because mud needs to dry between coats.
