Drywall of RI is a registered Rhode Island drywall, plaster, carpentry, and painting contractor (RI Reg. GC-46139) serving Warwick since 2017. From the waterfront cottages of Conimicut and Oakland Beach to the mid-century ranches inland, we cover the whole city.
Working in Warwick
Warwick is Rhode Island’s third-largest city and has 39 miles of coastline on Narragansett Bay, so a large share of its homes sit near the water — Conimicut, Oakland Beach, Buttonwoods, Warwick Neck, Nausauket. Many started as summer cottages and were built up into year-round homes, mixed with mid-century ranches and capes and some custom colonials. Inland, Apponaug is the traditional village center. Near the water, moisture is a real factor in how a repair holds. Registered in Rhode Island (Reg. GC-46139), serving Warwick since 2017.

What to know for Warwick projects
Two patterns dominate Warwick work. Inland, it's basement and bonus-room finishing in the city's huge stock of mid-century homes — framing, drywall, and finish carpentry as one job. Along the water, moisture is the priority: we use moisture-resistant board in basements and baths on near-bay properties, where damp conditions chew through ordinary drywall. Ceiling repair and texture matching in older ranches rounds out most of what we do here.
Our services in Warwick
Basement & bonus-room finishing
Turning the unfinished basements common in Warwick’s mid-century homes into living space — framing, moisture-aware drywall, and finish carpentry together.
Moisture-resistant drywall
Mold- and moisture-resistant board in basements and baths for Warwick’s many waterfront and near-bay homes in Conimicut, Oakland Beach, and Buttonwoods.
Repair & texture matching
Ceiling and wall repair plus texture matching in the city’s ranches and capes, so patches blend into the existing finish.
Frequently asked questions
- Does being near the bay affect drywall and plaster?
- It can. In the shoreline neighborhoods — Conimicut, Oakland Beach, Buttonwoods — humidity and salt air put extra stress on walls and ceilings. We flag moisture-prone areas, recommend moisture-resistant board where it matters, and finish so a repair doesn’t bubble or stain back within a year.
- Do you work on older converted cottages and seasonal homes?
- Yes — a lot of Warwick’s near-water stock started seasonal and was added onto over time, which leaves uneven older surfaces and additions that don’t quite match. We blend old and new and bring tired ceilings and walls back to a clean, even finish.
- What about the mid-century ranches and capes inland?
- That’s straightforward drywall work — clean board-and-tape, basement and attic finishing, and refreshing rooms that have aged. Inland Warwick, around Apponaug and the Post Road corridor, has a lot of this housing.
