Boise's dry climate keeps nail pops and small cracks coming year after year, and a quick spackle job over a hole doesn't always hold. Boise Drywall Repair Pros patches holes with proper backing and compound layering so the repair doesn't bulge or crack again in a few months.

From a doorknob dent to a cutout left behind by a plumber, each patch is sized and backed to match the original wall thickness, then finished with matching texture and paint.

FAQs

Drywall Patching And Hole Repair FAQs

Is it cheaper to patch a small hole or replace the whole sheet?

Patching is almost always cheaper for a localized hole. Full sheet replacement only makes sense when damage covers a large area.

What size hole needs backing?

Anything larger than a couple inches across typically needs a backing strip so the patch doesn't sag or crack.

Can you fix multiple holes at once?

And it's often more efficient to batch several small patches in one visit.

Will the patch be visible after painting?

Not if texture and paint are matched properly, which is standard with every patch we do.

How soon can I paint over a fresh patch?

Once the final compound coat is dry and sanded, usually the next day.
