The cause and type of damage determine the best drywall repair approach. Minor dings, scratches, and gouges are usually easy to fix with spackle and wall paint. Drywall damaged by moisture may need to be removed and replaced, which involves sanding, finishing, and painting. Beyond drywall repair or replacement, moisture problems must be corrected to prevent further damage, mold, and mildew. No matter what the issue, our drywall repairman has the answer.

The cost of drywall repair varies depending on the type of damage, cause of damage, and location of the drywall. Most drywall repairs aren't very complicated and shouldn't take much time. But when moisture, mold, and mildew are present, it typically takes more time to repair and may cost more to prevent the damage from reoccurring.

Everyday living causes wear and tear to drywall, whether it’s from hastily moving furniture, pets, or rough-housing kids. Depending on the extent of the damage and where it’s located in your home, the repair may not require immediate attention, but it will certainly detract from the beauty of your home. On the other hand, if there’s a gaping hole in your drywall that exposes electrical wires or plumbing, the repair should be done as soon as possible.

When your home’s drywall gets wet and then dries, it can cause the drywall to crack. While drywall cracks aren't uncommon, it's vital to understand what caused the damage so it can be prevented down the road. A house that is settling can not be avoided, but if there are structural issues that compromise the stability of your home, they should be addressed immediately. For most cracks in drywall, joint compound, tape, and paint will usually take care of the problem, as long as your home is structurally sound.
