Most Common Drywall Damages and Their Fixes

• Applying a new coat of paint to your interior is
  one of the simplest and effective ways to give a
  refreshing appeal to your home. Painting becomes
  even easier when the drywall is in good
  condition. But when the drywall is damaged, it
  becomes necessary to repair it before the actual
  painting to get professional results.

• If your drywall is damaged extensively due to
  water, the best way to solve it is to replace the
  entire sheet of drywall. In case the structure of
  the wall is in good condition then you can
  consider drywall repair techniques. However,
  before attempting to repair drywall, finding and
  fixing the source of damage is essential. It can
  be a challenging procedure, hence, hiring expert

Holes on the Wall

• Repairing holes in drywall require a good quality
  spackle compound (small holes) and joint compound
  (larger holes). Professional drywall repair DC
  experts will apply the filler for covering the
  holes properly. Then allow the filler to dry,
  after which another coat is applied. Let the
  second coat dry, then use fine grit sandpaper for
  smoothing the surface. If you are doing it on
  your own, you can use self-adhesive drywall
  patches for fixing holes. If there are multiple
  holes on the wall then it is best to replace the
  damaged section or entire sheet.

• Hairline cracks usually appear at inside corners
  of walls. In such cases drywall repair DC experts
  involve acrylic latex caulk application that
  flexible enough to bear up the movement between
  adjacent walls.

Tape Bubbling and Lifting

• Another common drywall damage is a loose tape
  that results in either bubbling or lifting from
  the wall surface. In such cases cutting around
  the bubbles, removing the tape and filling the
  hole with joint compound works best. Now a new
  strip of tape can be applies and covered with a
  thin layer of joint compound. Sand away any
  imperfections found!
