We then apply mesh tape or self-adhesive patch kits depending on damage size, followed by 2-3 coats of lightweight joint compound applied with precision.

Our Drywall Patching Process
Inspection and Preparation
Our technician inspects the damage to determine patch size and method. We remove loose drywall, sand rough edges, and clean the area thoroughly. This step typically takes 15-30 minutes for most residential repairs in Orlando.
Patch Application
For holes under 6 inches, we apply self-adhesive mesh tape and lightweight joint compound. For larger areas, we may cut and fit drywall patches secured with drywall screws. Application takes 30-45 minutes depending on damage extent.
Compound and Sanding
We apply 2-3 coats of joint compound, allowing 2-4 hours drying time between coats. Final sanding creates smooth, feathered edges that blend with surrounding wall. Sanding typically completes within 24 hours of first coat application.
Priming and Painting
Primer seals the patched area and improves paint adhesion. We then apply finish paint matched to your wall color using samples from your home or paint code. Most projects are ready for final inspection within 48 hours total.
