Drywall Patching & Repairs

The Importance of Drywall Maintenance

As a homeowner, you know well enough that regular repairs and a little ‘TLC’ are vital for maintaining a healthy home. Although often neglected, your drywall is no exception. But drywall repairs extend past just aesthetics – did you know your drywall can impact the structural integrity and energy efficiency of your home?

Neglecting old drywall with holes, dents or water damage opens the door to a host of issues down the road. Mold is a big one, which can wreak havoc on your air quality with just a little moisture. Pests can also make themselves at home in drywall that is not properly maintained with cracks and holes, particularly mice and termites.

At Steel City Drywall, we provide all the drywall repair and maintenance services to keep your home safe, healthy, and energy efficient.

Drywall Patching Process

Do your walls and ceilings have little holes, dents and scratches? If you live in an older home or one with kids and pets running around, chances are you do. As long as your walls and ceilings aren’t severely damaged with serious moisture issues, drywall patching is a service that can restore the look and health of your home.

So how does it work? The drywall patching process begins by identifying the damaged areas of your walls and ceilings, whether its small holes, dents, scratches or water damage. We’ll then cut out the affected area, install furring strips for support (if necessary), and attach a patch to fit the area. From there we’ll tape, sand and paint the area to blend it flawlessly with the existing surface.
