Drywall Patch & Repair

At first blush a drywall patch & repair project seems quick and easy. However, once you begin you realize how difficult it is. There are two ways to approach such a project. First approach is to purchase a pre-fabricated drywall and repair kit from your hardware store and slap it on the wall. This means you will have to mud it yourself. If you are not extremely patient and handy, the end result will look worse then before you began the project. This will result you in eventually calling a handyman to repair your repair. 

Hiring Everblue Handy To Fix Your Drywall Patch & Repair

The second approach is to hire Everblue Handy to do it right the first time. There are many steps involved in correctly completing a professional drywall patch and repair.

Step 1: Secure a piece of drywall that is the same thickness of your current drywall

Step 2: Mark the size of the replacement drywall piece on the wall

Step 3: Cut the size you just marked to fit the replacement drywall piece

Step 4: Use a piece of wood that is larger then the cutout size and secure it behind the existing wall which will allow you to secure the new piece drywall

Step 5: Mud the joints

Step 6: Sand a larger area then the repair itself

Step 7: Mud again

Step 8: Sand to smooth the area out

Step 9: Texture to match existing texture

Step 10: Paint to the existing color code of the wall which you secure by taking a piece of the existing wall to your hardware store

Step 11: Paint wall
