Drywall repair & patching · Atlanta & Metro Atlanta, GA

Drywall repair & patching in Atlanta, patched until you can't find it

We fix the damage that builds up in a lived-in house: doorknob holes, nail pops, settling cracks over doorways, ceiling stains from an old leak, and seams where the tape has let go. A Tool Box Pros handyman cuts back to solid board, sets the patch, rebuilds the texture around it and leaves it primed, with the price settled before the first cut.

What we do

The drywall work we take on

Most wall and ceiling damage in a home falls into one of these four jobs.

Holes, small to large

Anchor and nail holes get filled; fist-sized and doorknob holes get a backed patch or a new piece of board screwed to blocking, so the repair doesn't flex when it's pressed.

Cracks and nail pops

Hairline cracks above doors and windows and popped screw heads are opened up, re-fastened and re-taped.

Leak-stained ceilings

Once the leak above has been fixed, soft or sagging board is cut out and replaced, and the stain is sealed so it can't bleed through fresh paint.

Texture matching

Smooth, orange peel and knockdown finishes are rebuilt across the patch, so the repair blends in instead of showing as a flat square on a textured wall.

How we work

How a drywall repair visit goes

We look at the damage first

Send a photo through the form or have us stop by. We check the size of the damage, whether moisture is still behind it, and which texture the wall carries, then give you a price before any work begins.

We patch, tape and let it set

Damaged board is cut back to solid material and the patch goes in. Joint compound goes on in thin coats, and a deep repair may need a second trip so each coat can dry fully instead of shrinking later.

We finish it and clean up

The repair is sanded, textured and primed so it's ready for paint, or painted to match if you have the leftover can. Drop cloths come up and the dust leaves with us.

The quote

How we price drywall repair

Drywall repair is priced by the job, after we've seen the damage in person or in clear photos. You get the number before work starts. The price we agree is the price, unless you add work or we find something hidden — then we stop and agree any change with you first.

Always included

  • Cutting out damaged board and setting the patch
  • Taping, mudding, sanding and texture matching
  • Primer on the repair, drop cloths and cleanup

What changes the number

  • How many damaged areas there are, and how large
  • Ceilings or tall walls that need extra ladder work
  • Water damage that needs board replaced rather than patched

Good to know

Drywall repair questions

Have a question about your job? Call or text (770) 746-7207 and we'll talk it through with you before you book anything.

Will I be able to see the patch afterward?

On smooth walls and common textures, a well-feathered, primed patch should disappear once it's painted. Older or unusual textures are harder to match exactly, and we'll tell you at the estimate if we expect a difference you might notice.

Can you fix a ceiling stained by a leak?

Yes, once the source has been fixed. We don't repair roofs or plumbing, so the leak has to be stopped first; if the board is still wet or the stain keeps spreading, a patch would only fail again.

When is drywall damage not a handyman job?

Flood damage across whole rooms, mold behind the wall, sagging that points to a structural problem, or hanging new drywall throughout a room is beyond what we do. We'll say so plainly at the estimate rather than take on work that needs a different trade.
