The #1 Mistake Builders Make When Hiring Drywall Crews
Deadlines matter. So does your reputation.
As a builder or general contractor, you’ve got multiple trades to juggle—and if one drops the ball, everyone feels it. When drywall crews show up late, underdeliver, or leave seams sloppy, you pay the price.
Here’s the mistake we see most often:
Hiring based on price instead of performance.
Cheap Crews Cost More
We’ve been brought in too many times to fix what a cheap crew broke—
- Re-taping seams that weren’t set right
- Fixing flashing joints and uneven texture
- Cleaning up thick layers of dust that ruined the painter’s prep
- Causing delays that push your whole schedule back
What looked like a “deal” ends up costing you days, labor hours, and client trust.
Why We’re Different
1. We Actually Show Up
On time. Every time. No chasing. No “where’s the crew?” calls.
2. We Run Off Your Plans
We use digital measuring tools, read plans like builders, and don’t need to be babysat.
3. We Finish Fast—And Finish Right
Sharp corners, clean seams, zero rework. We do it once, and it sticks.
4. We Don’t Make a Mess for Other Trades
Festool sanding means your painter walks into a clean job, not a dust bomb.
5. We Make You Look Good
Your client sees clean crews, organized process, and a perfect finish. That’s what they remember.
Your Project Deserves Better
Drywall is one of the last things clients see before paint goes on. It can make or break their first impression of the entire build.
We’re not here to be the cheapest bid. We’re here to be the cleanest, sharpest, most reliable drywall partner you’ve ever had.

You're standing in a showroom comparing two wall samples, and one catches your eye immediately. But is it the right choice for your home? The decision between smooth and textured drywall finishes affects how your walls look, perform, and how much you'll invest in your remodel. At Superior Drywall & Finishing, I've helped hundreds of homeowners in Northwest Arkansas navigate this exact decision. The truth is that there's no universally "best" answer. In this guide, I'll walk you through everything you need to know about smooth versus textured drywall so you can decide with confidence.
When we finish a drywall job and walk through it with you, there's one thing I always make sure to mention: our 1-year workmanship guarantee. And almost every time, I get the same response. "Oh, that's great. So what does that actually mean?" It's a fair question. A lot of contractors throw around words like "guarantee" or "warranty" without really explaining what they're promising. And honestly, most drywall contractors don't offer any kind of guarantee at all. So let me break down exactly what ours covers, why we offer it, and why it matters for your project.
