FAQs

Drywall Patching FAQs

How big of a hole can drywall patching fix?

Anything from a nail hole up through a hole roughly a foot across is typically patchable. Bigger than that usually calls for a sheet section replacement instead.

Is DIY drywall patching worth it for a small hole?

For a nail hole, yes. Once texture matching enters the picture, most homeowners are better off calling in a pro, since a mismatched pattern is more noticeable than the original hole.

Do you have to repaint the whole wall after a patch or just the spot?

Just the spot, if your existing paint isn't faded or the sheen has shifted over time. We'll flag it if a full repaint would look better.

How long does it take for a drywall patch to dry before painting?

Usually 24 to 48 hours, depending on how many coats the patch needed and the humidity that week.

What's the difference between drywall patching and full drywall repair?

Patching covers smaller, contained damage. Full repair often includes larger sections, structural cracks, or multiple repair types on one visit.
