Decide where the repair should stop
A patch prepared for paint is not the same job as a painted wall. Tell us whether you have matching paint and whether the surrounding wall is smooth or textured. Ceiling height, several damaged areas, and repairs next to tile can change the work. Any active leak or mold problem must be addressed before finish repair.

Wall texture repair
A smooth patch can stand out on a textured wall. Send a close-up of the existing pattern and a wider photo showing how much surface needs attention.
Interior painting touch-ups
Touch up scuffed surfaces or paint a repaired section of wall. Send a photo of the area and the paint label if you still have the original can.
Drywall repair
Cracked seams, damaged wall sections, and repeated patches need more context than a close-up of one hole. Include photos of the surrounding wall or ceiling and describe what caused the damage.
FAQ
Questions about drywall patching
Is painting included with a patch?
Only when the estimate includes it. The pricing options separate patching, texturing, and painting so you can choose the finish you need.
Can the texture and paint match exactly?
An exact match is not promised. Existing texture, paint age, sheen, and light affect the result. We can discuss whether a larger painted area would make more sense.
Can you patch a damp or moldy wall?
Not as a cosmetic repair. The moisture source and any required remediation need to be addressed first; active leaks and mold remediation are excluded.
