FAQs
Hole & Dent Repair FAQs
How big of a hole can drywall repair fix?
Small dents up through holes around a foot across are typically patched. Larger damage usually calls for a sheet-section replacement instead.
What size hole is too big to patch and needs a full sheet replacement?
Once a hole starts approaching two feet or more across, or spans multiple studs, replacing a section of the sheet is usually more efficient than patching.
Is DIY drywall patching worth it for a small hole?
For a nail hole or small dent, yes. Doorknob-size and up is where a pro's backing and texture-matching skills start to matter.
How much does hole and dent repair cost?
Small dents run $100–$200. Larger holes with backing and texture matching can run $350–$650.
Do I need a permit for hole and dent repair?
Almost never. This is cosmetic repair work and doesn't require a permit in almost every case.
