Small drywall patches that disappear after paint

A cluster of picture holes, a doorknob crater, a nail pop over the stairs — those are patch jobs. We cut back to sound board, float the repair, match the texture, and paint the blend so you are not staring at a shiny circle.

This is deliberately smaller than our drywall and painting page. If a leak stained half a ceiling or a closet was demoed, that is a room-scale finish. If you took down a TV mount and want the holes gone before listing the house, that is this page.

We keep patch kits and texture cans for the orange peel that covers most Loudoun builder walls. Doorknob hits often need a repair plate or a block so the next swing does not open the same hole. Paint blend works best when you still have the original color — leftover cans in the basement are gold. Without them we sample and get close, then tell you if a corner-to-corner coat is the honest finish.

Typical jobs

  • Picture, shelf, and TV-mount holes
  • Nail pops and screw pops
  • Doorknob wall hits
  • Small water-stain spots after the leak is fixed
  • Corner scuffs before a listing or move-in

What we decline

  • Full-room drywall replacement
  • Popcorn-ceiling whole-house scrapes
  • Plaster restoration as a specialty
