Materials and methods we use

Self-adhesive mesh patches
quick, reliable coverage for holes under about 6 inches

Metal or plastic backing plates
bridge the gap on mid-size holes so the compound has something solid to hold

Lightweight joint compound
easier to sand, less shrinkage as it cures in our humidity swings

Texture hopper gun
matches knockdown and orange peel patterns common across New Braunfels homes

Setting compound for deeper fills
used when the hole is deeper than a standard skim coat can handle

Fine-grit sanding sponge
keeps dust manageable and the finish smooth before paint

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.
