The Dallas-Fort Worth region is in the midst of a residential building boom, and contractors are racing to meet a flood of new orders. In this high-tempo environment, firms that can combine rapid execution with flawless finishes are thriving. Texan Drywall entered the DFW market nearly five years ago, positioning itself to ride the wave of growth while keeping a tight grip on quality.
Growth and market presence of Texan Drywall
Founded in Houston more than 25 years ago, Texan Drywall now operates in three of Texas’ biggest construction corridors: Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, and the San Antonio-Austin corridor. The company describes itself as a “turnkey” drywall contractor handling everything from hanging the rock to taping, sanding and delivering Level 5 finishes. Projects range from modest single-family homes to multimillion-dollar, custom-built residences, and the firm also tackles selective light-commercial work.
Speed, quality and the company culture
City Manager Seth Green explains that “speed is everything around here – it’s the Wild West, and time is money.” The crew’s ability to finish a house quickly translates into higher earnings for everyone, from laborers to subcontractors. Reese Mason, another city manager, adds that the company’s pillars are quality and customer service. He emphasizes an obsessive attention to detail, noting that each home represents a space where families will live daily, and the team strives to make that environment as perfect as possible.
Strategic partnerships with Murco and Trim-Tex
Long-term relationships underpin the firm’s success. Murco Wall Products supplies the bulk of the drywall, mud, tape, screws and even the spray-on house texture used on site. Cristian Escobedo, a professional finisher, says the company relies on Murco for “the best balance of quality and price,” and that the partnership extends to customized components for high-end homes. Trim-Tex provides the corner beads—both bullnose and square—that finish every edge. Because both Murco and Trim-Tex are family-owned and have decades of experience, they respond quickly when special orders are needed, keeping projects on schedule.
How the partnerships solve real-world challenges
When a specialty trim piece was delayed, Green recounts that Murco and Trim-Tex worked together to find the fastest alternative, offering pre-ordered stock or expedited shipping. Their transparent communication and willingness to problem-solve helped Texan Drywall maintain its rapid pace without compromising on the finish quality that clients expect.
