It doesn’t matter if it’s the size of a doorknob or big enough to see inside the wall — a hole in your drywall is never just a “little problem.” And most of the time, it’s not even something you planned for. Life just happens.
Maybe your plumber had to open up a section to fix a leaking pipe — now there’s a big square cutout in your hallway. Or your kid got a little too wild with a football in the house and now there’s a dent the size of a cantaloupe. Maybe you got frustrated, tossed your phone a little too hard, and it cracked the wall. It’s more common than you think — we’ve had folks quietly tell us, “Yeah… I threw the remote.”
Sometimes it’s just normal living. You're moving a couch, the corner clips the wall, and now there’s a deep gouge or even a hole. Doors swing open too hard and push the handle straight through the drywall. We've seen accidental elbow strikes, kids with toy swords, and even a new puppy that tried to chew through the corner of a wall. No judgment — drywall doesn’t take much to break.
The important thing is this, holes in the wall don’t get better with time. They don’t just go away. And while it might be tempting to patch it up yourself, drywall repair is one of those things that looks simple… until you’re halfway in, covered in dust, and realizing it’s not turning out like the YouTube video promised.

Service for Fixing the Hole in the Wall
We get it — having a contractor in your home isn’t exactly on your wish list. There’s the hassle, the expense, the time off work. But here’s what we’ve learned from years of patching up Grand Prairie’s walls: ignoring drywall damage always costs more in the long run.
That small hole? It can invite moisture. Moisture leads to mold. Mold leads to a bigger repair — and potential health issues.
That busted area behind your door? It could attract pests or compromise insulation.
Even a surface-level ding can bring down the look (and value) of your home, especially if you’re getting ready to sell or rent it out. We’ve worked with a lot of homeowners who said, “I wish I had just taken care of this sooner.”

Is It Easy to Fix a Hole in the Wall?
A lot of people think so. It’s drywall — how hard can it be? Buy a patch kit, slap on some mud, sand it down, right?
The truth is, we often get called after someone tried the DIY route. It’s not that you can’t do it — it’s that getting it to look clean, flush, and match the texture takes experience and the right tools.
We’ve seen patches that sag, crack, or show up like a big bump under paint. We’ve seen mismatched textures that scream “repair job” from across the room. And if your walls have knockdown, orange peel, or any type of texture? That’s a whole different skill set.
We’re not here to scare you out of DIY, but we do want you to know the reality. What seems like a $20 fix can turn into a weekend headache and still not look right. Then you call us anyway. At that point, you’ve spent time, money, and effort, and now we have to undo what’s been done before doing it right.

Wall Repair Contractors
We treat every repair like it’s in our own home. We show up on time, we respect your space, and we clean up after ourselves. Most jobs are quick — we’re in and out without dragging it out for days. We also know how to blend textures so the fix disappears into the rest of the wall.
If there’s a reason for the damage (like plumbing access), we’ll make sure the area’s ready before we close it up. If there's a recurring issue (like door handles punching holes), we’ll suggest simple, affordable solutions to prevent it from happening again.
It’s not just about putting mud on a wall. It’s about doing it once, doing it right, and giving you back your peace of mind.
