How We Repair Large Drywall Holes
 

Our step-by-step process guarantees lasting results and a smooth beautiful finish.

Step 1: Assessing the damage

We inspect the area to determine the extent of the damage and identify any underly issues like moisture or structural concerns.

Step 2: Prepping the area

We protect your floors and furniture, remove loose debris, and cut the hole into a clean, manageable shape.

A new piece of drywall is custom cut and secured into the opening, flush with the wall surface.

Step 3:  Installing Backing Support

For large holes, we install a secure backer (usually wood or metal) to anchor the new drywall patch firmly.

Step 4: Applying the Patch

We apply joint compound, sand it smooth, and texture-match to blend perfectly with the existing wall.  Once dry, it's ready for primer and paint.

Step 5: Finishing and Blending

  • ✅ Fast, professional service

  • ✅ Clean, mess-free process

  • ✅ Durable, invisible repairs

  • ✅ Locally trusted in Cedar Park, Round Rock & surrounding areas

Our experience ensures every patch blends perfectly with the surrounding wall so no one will ever know damage was there.
