Patching them up is an easy DIY project with these 3 simple steps:


1️⃣ Cut back the hole to expose the wall studs. Use a drywall saw or utility knife to cut a clean, rectangular shape around the damaged area. This will give the drywall patch something solid to adhere to.


2️⃣ Attach a drywall patch using drywall screws driven into the exposed studs. Cut a piece of replacement drywall to fit over the hole, secure with screws into the studs.


3️⃣ Apply joint compound over the seams and screws. Do 2-3 coats, allowing drying in between, to feather out the patch to a smooth finish. Lightly sand before painting.


With these 3 steps, you can easily repair popped nails, scrapes, or holes up to 6 inches wide. No major drywall removal needed! Just cut, screw, mud and sand for damaged wall fixes that disappear. Let us know if you have any stubborn drywall repairs needed.
