How a drywall repair job runs
Size up the damage
We measure the opening, check for moisture and decide between a filled repair, a paper-flange patch, a backed patch or a cut to framing.
Cut clean and add support
Ragged edges are squared off, and wood cleats or framing give the new board a solid surface to screw into.
Patch and tape
Matching-thickness board goes in, seams are taped and the area is coated in thin layers, each feathered out past the one before.
Make it disappear
After sanding with dust extraction, we match the surrounding texture and prime so the patch is ready for paint.

Drywall Repair questions
Can you repair drywall in a home that is occupied?
Yes. We seal off the work area, cover floors and furniture and use HEPA dust control, so families and tenants can stay in the home while the repair is done.
What size hole can be patched without replacing a full sheet?
Almost any. Repairs are done by cutting out the damaged area and fitting a piece of new board on backing or framing. A full sheet is only replaced when damage covers most of it or the board is wet or moldy throughout.
Why do you cut the hole bigger before patching it?
Ragged, crushed edges do not hold fasteners or tape well. Squaring the opening to firm, undamaged board, and sometimes out to the framing, gives the patch solid edges so it does not crack around the perimeter later.
Should I use mesh tape or paper tape?
Both work when used correctly. Paper tape is stronger on flat seams and inside corners. Self-adhesive mesh is quick for patches but should be covered with a setting-type compound, because ordinary premixed mud over mesh is more likely to crack.
