8A Solutions offered a very fair price and provided a great quality paint job. They got the work done in a timely manner as well. I highly recommend 8A Solutions.

Drywall done right — with the ROI up front
Lake County's older homes — the century-old houses near downtown Libertyville or throughout Lake Forest — frequently have real plaster, which takes a different hand than modern drywall to repair right. In newer homes it's drywall repair after water damage, settling cracks, or a remodel. Either way, the standard is the same: patched, matched, and finished so it disappears.
Because we also paint, we hand off seamlessly from repair to finish — no coordinating two trades, no finger-pointing about whose job the texture was. And with the Property Value Analysis up front, you see how interior repairs fit into the bigger return on updating the home.
What's included
Drywall repair
Cracks, holes, and water damage patched to disappear.
Plaster repair
The right hand for the real plaster in older Lake County homes.
New installation
Hang and finish for remodels, additions, and refinished spaces.
Texture matching
Matched textures so a patch blends into the existing wall or ceiling.
Drywall across Lake County
We bring drywall to all eight of our Lake County communities:
Drywall questions, answered
- Can you match the texture on my existing walls?
- Yes — texture matching is the difference between a repair that disappears and one you can spot. It's standard for us.
- Do you handle old plaster, not just drywall?
- Yes. Many older Lake County homes have real plaster, which we repair with the right approach rather than just skim-coating over it.
- Do you serve my town?
- We do drywall and plaster work across all eight of our Lake County communities. Choose your town below.

If you’re looking for a change in 2026, this is your calling. I’ve been trying to get my house painted for years, but pricing always held me back. 8A Solution came out, gave me a great price, and actually listened to exactly what I wanted. They were quick, efficient, and their work truly speaks for itself. I couldn’t be happier with the results.

Exceptional work, clear communication, and professional. It's hard to find the right people to trust in your home and rely on them to make your vision come true. This company checked all the boxes and completed the work exceeding my expectations! I will be sure to call them in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to refresh or restore their home!
