Selbyville sits in the southern corner of Sussex County, close to the Maryland border and just a short drive from the Delaware beaches. The town has a mix of long-established residential neighborhoods and newer homes that have grown up around its agricultural roots. KD Drywall N Paint serves Selbyville homeowners with drywall repair, finishing, and interior painting work across all types of properties in the area.
Many of Selbyville's older homes have walls that have been through decades of use — settling cracks, water stains from old roof leaks, and holes left behind by previous owners or contractors. Repairing these walls properly means more than filling with spackle. We use Zinsser Gardz to prime and stabilize the surface first, then FibaFuse — a fiberglass mat tape that embeds into joint compound to reinforce seams — ensuring repairs hold through the natural settling that comes with older construction. Texture matching is done carefully so the repaired area blends into the surrounding wall before painting.
Whether you have had a plumber, electrician, or HVAC contractor working in your home, the holes and cuts they leave behind need to be properly closed and finished. We handle post-trade patching throughout Selbyville and the surrounding area — cutting holes to clean edges, installing backing, applying new drywall, and finishing with multiple coats of joint compound so the patch is invisible after painting.

A few local facts about the community we serve.
Selbyville was originally known as Sandy Branch, named for its location on a branch of the same name. The town got its current name in the 19th century when Sampson Selby, the owner of a local country store, began addressing goods to the location as "Selby-Ville."
Selbyville was officially incorporated in 1902, making it one of the later-incorporated towns in Sussex County. Despite its small size, it has long served as a commercial hub for the agricultural communities of southern Sussex County.
The town sits just a few miles from the Maryland state line, making it one of the southernmost communities in Delaware. Its proximity to both the Delaware beaches and the Maryland shore has contributed to steady residential growth in recent decades.
