Drywall is composed of gypsum pressed between 2 sheets of paper. Over the past half-century, drywall has become the go-to interior wall solution for residential homes. Drywall’s cost effectiveness, fire resistance, energy efficiency, and ease of installation have made it ubiquitous. The one downside of drywall is that is can be easily damaged from everyday wear and tear. Fortunately, drywall can also be repaired quickly and simply.
There are many reasons why drywall would need to be repaired, and we’ll discuss those in future articles. But for now, here are just a few (of many) common drywall repairs:
Dents
Whether it was from moving furniture or maybe swinging the door open a little too hard, we all can relate to dents in the drywall.
Water Damage
A common need for drywall repair is water damage. Water damage can be extensive, and if left unrepaired will often lead to mold damage and more extensive damage.
Holes
There are a lot of stories that can be told about how a hole was made in the wall. Kids and pets can certainly do damage (I can relate!), but holes can also happen from other needed house repairs like plumbing, electrical, or remodeling.
Cracks
One of the most common drywall repair need comes from cracking. Depending on the age of the home or the products used during construction, a home tends to settle both above and below the foundation. This settling can cause fractures to occur either at the seams or straight through whole drywall pieces, causing cracks.
These issues can certainly hurt the aesthetics of a house, but if left unrepaired they can sometimes turn into a much bigger problem. MontCo Patch Pro specializes in these kind of repairs, and will get your house looking new again!
