Homes are meant to be lived in – that’s why it’s not uncommon to see drywall with holes or some type of damage. The good news is, it’s actually pretty easy to fix.

DRYWALL REPAIR SERVICES

Drywall damage can happen pretty easily. If you’ve used a nail to hang up a picture, or had a doorknob put a dent into a wall, you know just how delicate this surface can be. While it might not seem like a big deal, even the smallest hole can be noticeable. If these holes and damaged parts aren’t properly covered up before a paint job, they’ll be even more noticeable. We’ll be happy to help you fix these problems.

• Small punch-through holes from nails,

PRIMING DRYWALL FOR PAINT

Before we paint, we’ll do a walk through of the space and inspect for any existing damage. We’ll take note of all the spots that need repair, and then we’ll get to work! Very small holes (like those from nails) can be fixed by simply filling them with mud/spackle, and sanded down once dried. This is usually a pretty quick process.

For bigger holes (like those from door handles, etc) will need to be patched, which is a bit of a more complex process. First we’ll carefully measure the hole, and cut a patch of drywall to fit it. We’ll then apply mud/spackle around the edges of the hole on the wall. Next, the patch is carefully applied, with more mud being applied over top of the patch. Once it has dried, we’ll sand it down to create a smooth surface that’s ready to be painted.

Overall, it is usually a pretty fast fix, and we’ll be able to start painting no time.

THE BENEFITS OF FINISHING DRYWALL

If you’ve got holes of any size or dents in your drywall, they’re definitely worth fixing. A new coat of paint on its own just isn’t enough to cover it up—in fact, it often makes the damage stand out even more. When you’re getting a new paint job, you want to make sure you have a smooth surface, so you can achieve the best look possible.

Repairing holes and dents in your drywall is a quick and easy way to make your space look brand new again. It’s a must-do before applying a fresh coat of paint to a wall. If you would like us to help you out with your drywall repairs and a new paint color for your space, book an appointment today!
