Garage Finishing
Insulation, Drywall, Paint and Floor — One Crew, Bare Studs to Done
A finished garage normally takes three contractors and a month of scheduling friction: an insulator, a drywaller, a painter, maybe a floor company. It’s our signature project precisely because we’re all four — one estimate, one crew flow, and a garage that goes from bare studs to insulated, sheetrocked, painted and floor-coated without a handoff.
What’s Included
Every project starts with a free on-site estimate and a written scope. Here’s what garage finishing looks like when we do it:
To get started, use our online form or call (612) 816-5333.
- Insulation
Walls batted or foamed, ceilings insulated where there’s living space above, and the attached-wall assembly done to fire code.
- Drywall, taped and finished
Hung, taped and finished to your chosen level — fire-rated board where the garage attaches to the house.
- Paint
Primed and painted in durable, scuffable finishes that keep the space bright and cleanable.
- Floor coating
The flake-and-polyaspartic floor that finishes the transformation — see our garage floor coating service for the full system.

Garage Finishing — Common Questions
What does a full garage finish include?
Typically insulation, vapor barrier where appropriate, fire-code drywall on shared walls and ceilings, taping to your chosen finish level, paint, and optionally the floor coating. You pick the stopping point — some customers want taped-and-paintable, most want turn-key.
Does an attached garage need special drywall?
Yes — code requires a fire-separation assembly (typically 5/8″ Type X on the house-side wall and ceiling under living space). We build it to code and can document it for your inspector.
Will finishing make my garage warmer?
Substantially — insulated and sheetrocked garages hold heat well enough that a small heater makes them usable all winter. Add the floor coating and the space stops feeling like storage and starts feeling like part of the house.

Junior and his crew were great to work with on our office redesign. They got us our estimate same day and gave a great price. The hardworking crew got the job done faster than I expected, and it also came out perfectly. We will be using him and his team again in the future.
I hired Home Drywall and Painting to finish my three-car garage starting from bare studs, and they did an outstanding job. They handled insulation, full sheetrock installation, mudding and taping, and painting — all in-house. What normally would take multiple contractors was completed by one company, which made the process smooth and efficient.
After my first contractor jerked me around for 2 weeks with excuses, the team at Home Drywall & Painting became my Plan B. Jessica took my call, sent me a proposal and had me booked next day. Adam had his team dispatched and they finished in about 3.5 hours. They had one hiccup during install, but they resolved the issue and made it right. Everyone was respectful and polite. The end price was exactly what I was quoted. Happy to recommend.
They were very respectful of our home and our schedule, did an absolutely beautiful job — and communicated daily about what to expect. A plumbing water damage mishap to our finished lower level meant repairing the entire ceiling: skim, sand, re-texture, paint — plus removal and reinstallation of ceiling fans, a chandelier, can lights, speakers and vents. Gerid and the Home Drywall team also offered a very competitive price.
