Drywall Repairs & Patchwork
Drywall damage, often in the form of stress cracks, or nails and screws popping, is caused by movement in the framing to which the drywall is attached. Some drywall damage is caused by "settling" of a new house, and wood drying out and/or adjusting to the stress of its new role in the structure
of the new house.
When performing a drywall patch, we cover area with plastic, square up the hole, install two 1×2 backing on the inside of the drywall hole, then measure and cut a piece of drywall, screw it in, mesh tape, apply drywall mud (minimum of two coats), wet sand it, and finally, we match the texture.
