- Doorknob hole
- Nail pops
Two short visits, just like they said. I genuinely cannot find the patch now. Darnell even found the paint code on my old can.

Drywall repair Patch it right
Patches that disappear: doorknob holes, nail pops, anchor scars and ceiling stains after the leak is fixed.
How we do it
A good patch is boring to look at. You should not be able to find it a month later. That takes thin coats, real dry time, and a texture match that is done by hand.
So most patches are two short visits: patch and tape on day one, then sand, texture and prime on day two. Both visits are in the price. We do not rush mud to save a trip.

- Texture matching by hand
- Ceiling stains after a fixed leak

Good to know
Questions about drywall
Why does a patch take two visits?
Joint compound needs to dry between coats. Rushing it is how you get a patch that shows through the paint. Two short visits keeps it invisible, and the price already includes both.
Will the patch match my wall texture?
We match orange peel and knockdown by hand and get it close. On a big smooth wall with raking light, we will tell you if a full wall coat looks better.

- Ceiling stain
They checked the old leak spot with a moisture meter and told us to wait a week because it was still damp. Came back, patched it, and you would never know.
