A Kelley Drywall & Pntng LLC.

The state lists Erick Kelley and Ashley Kelley as principals since 2023. Washington L&I registers the business under painting with a general specialty, and it travels roughly 25 miles from Spokane, a radius that takes in Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake, Mead, Cheney and Airway Heights. Work comes in through trade directories and neighborhood boards, which fits a small shop that relies on referrals and repeat local customers. A business this size suits residential work: a patched ceiling after a plumbing repair, a room repainted before a sale, new drywall finished and painted in a basement. Doing both trades means one crew can take a wall from repair to final coat without a handoff between contractors. Large commercial drywall packages are a different kind of job, better matched to firms built for that scale. Spokane's housing runs from early twentieth-century homes on the South Hill and in the older neighborhoods to newer subdivisions out toward the Valley and Liberty Lake. Older houses often have plaster and lath walls, which take patching differently than drywall, and may carry layers of old paint worth testing for lead before sanding. Newer homes are mostly drywall with flat or eggshell finishes that show patch lines easily. Ask any painter how they plan to blend repairs into the existing texture and sheen, and what prep the walls will get before color goes on.
