Drywall repair

Repairs you can’t see

A good drywall repair isn’t visible once it’s painted. That takes more than filler: the patch has to be flat, the joint tape hidden, and the texture matched to the wall around it.

What we fix

• Small holes and dents from door handles, anchors, and furniture.
• Larger holes where a section of board needs replacing and backing.
• Cracks along joints and around doors and windows, often from settling.
• Water-stained ceilings, once the leak itself has been fixed. We seal the stain so it doesn’t bleed through the new paint.

How a repair is done

We cut back damaged material to sound board, fit a patch or new section, tape the joints, and apply thin coats of compound, sanding between each one. Then we match the texture, whether that’s smooth, orange peel, or knockdown, and prime the repair.

Painting after repairs

Primer alone won’t match the rest of the wall, so repaired walls need painting to blend in. We usually paint the whole wall, corner to corner, so the color and sheen are even. Book the repair together with interior painting, or ask us about repairs only.
