Sheetrock and drywall are the same material, different name. Star Drywall Repair handles panel-level repairs: sections that are soft, cracked, or exposed down to the studs, not just surface patches.
Newer Star subdivisions sometimes mix panel thicknesses between phases of a build. Matching that thickness matters when a replacement section needs to sit flush against the original sheetrock.

How Our Sheetrock Repair Process Works
Step 1Surface Evaluation
The sheetrock is checked for soft spots, cracks, or structural weakness.
Step 2Section Removal
Damaged sheetrock is carefully cut away to expose the framing beneath.
Step 3New Panel Fitting
A replacement panel is measured and installed to match the original thickness.
Step 4Seam Taping
Tape is applied over joints to prevent cracking and ensure durability.
Step 5Compound Smoothing
Multiple thin coats are applied to create a flawless, flat surface.
Step 6Finish Touch-Up
The repaired area is painted or textured to match surrounding walls.
Materials
Materials and Methods for Sheetrock Repair

Sheetrock Panels
Cut to match the thickness used in your home's build phase, common in Star's mix of subdivision ages.

Paper Tape
Applied over flat seams for a bond that outlasts a quick mesh-only fix.

Setting Compound
A fast-drying mix used where structural seams need extra strength.

Screws And Anchors
Secure new sheetrock to studs that have shifted slightly from settling.

Sanding Block
Levels the compound coats before the finish stage.

Finish Paint
Blended to match the surrounding wall's sheen and color.
