Jefferson / Arapahoe County · Littleton, CO · Home Base
Littleton is older than the Douglas County newer-build towns to its south — established neighborhoods, mid-century housing stock, and a historic downtown core, with newer pockets layered in around it. That mix shapes the drywall work we do there.
Drywall in Littleton
Older Littleton homes mean more of the work involves crack repair from decades of settling, popcorn ceiling removal in homes ready to leave the 70s behind, and texture matching on additions to homes that have grown over the years. We handle all of it — and our sister team at Wild Fox Painting repaints to blend the new work into walls that have seen a few coats.
What we do in Littleton
Not a menu — what we're asked for here, and what's different about doing it here.
Neighborhoods We Cover
Different builders, different decades, different textures — and it shows in what the drywall needs. Here's what we see most.
'70s through '90s foothills homes with hand-applied textures and decades of settling. Corner cracks, texture rebuilt by hand, popcorn ceilings, and basements ready to finish.
Mid-century to '90s homes, many remodeled more than once. New drywall meeting old plaster on additions, and older textures that need matching rather than replacing.
Lakeside custom homes and rebuilds. Additions and remodels where new work has to disappear into the existing house, and finish levels that suit the home.
Late '90s and 2000s homes around the lake. Unfinished basements, first settling cracks, and orange-peel or light knockdown texture that has to match.
'80s two-stories and split-levels. Popcorn ceilings, nail pops and seam cracks, and a lot of texture repair before a repaint.
Pre-war bungalows with plaster and lath. Bridging and patching that keeps the plaster, or re-covering a far-gone wall in drywall and blending it into the rest.

From the Blog
How the work is actually done, from the crew that serves Littleton.
Getting started
From the first photo you send to the last coat of paint, here's what working with us looks like — built around your home, not our schedule.
Two minutes online or one phone call. A few photos are usually enough to scope a repair; we come see bigger projects in person. Reply within 24 hours, no obligation.
What we'll hang, tape and texture, the finish level, how the texture will be matched, and how long it takes — in writing, before anything starts.
Plastic on the doorways, floors and furniture covered, and sanding kept under control. The rest of the house stays livable while the room is under way.
The person who scoped your job stays your point of contact. Hang, tape, finish, and a texture rebuilt by hand to match what's already on the wall.
Our sister team at Wild Fox Painting primes and repaints so the repair disappears. Two specialty teams, one coordinated handoff: one estimate, one schedule, one point of contact.

A Few Local Questions
Yes. A lot of Littleton's mid-century homes were built with plaster and lath rather than modern drywall, and the repair is different — we bridge and patch so the new material sits flush with the old, then rebuild the surface texture to match. Where a wall is too far gone, we can re-cover it in drywall and blend it into the surrounding plaster.
That's the challenge with older Littleton neighborhoods like Ken Caryl and Columbine Valley — the textures were often hand-troweled or sprayed in patterns you don't see on newer builds, so a stock knockdown won't match. We read the existing pattern and rebuild it by hand so the repair blends into what's already there.
Often — it's one of the most requested updates in Littleton's older housing stock. We contain and protect the room, scrape the popcorn, repair any cracks or damage underneath, and refinish the ceiling smooth or in a current texture. Then Wild Fox Painting can repaint it so the whole room feels updated.
Decades of settling on Front Range soils will open cracks at seams and around doors and windows, and a mid-century home has had a long time to move. We fix them with tape and joint compound rather than a paint-only skim, so the repair holds through seasonal movement instead of reappearing the next year.
