How the repair works
Measure from a photo
A picture with something for scale lets us choose between a California patch and a backed patch before arriving.
Cut back to solid board
The crushed ring around the hole is cut into a clean square so the patch has firm edges.
Patch and bed
The new piece goes in on its paper flange or on screwed-in backing strips, and the seams are bedded in compound.
Texture and finish
After sanding, the wall's orange peel or knockdown is rebuilt over the patch, then primed and touch-up painted.

Doorknob Hole Repair questions
Will the patched spot be weaker than the rest of the wall?
A proper patch is about as strong as the original board, but no drywall survives repeated hits from a handle. A door stop is what keeps the repair intact.
Which door stop works best?
A baseboard spring or solid stop suits most doors. A hinge-pin stop avoids drilling, and an adhesive wall bumper suits doors that swing into a corner.
Can you fix doorknob holes before a tenant moves in?
Yes. Landlords and property managers often send photos of every hole in a unit, and we patch them all in one turnover visit.
Will the repair need the whole wall repainted?
Usually not. We prime and touch up the patched area. A wall with badly faded paint may show a slight sheen difference, in which case a painter can recoat the wall.
