Drywall is one of the most popular building materials in North Carolina. Used in building, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, and renovation projects, you'll find it in homes in the form of walls, ceilings, and even kitchen islands or bars. Drywall makes building projects easy and affordable, and the material provides a smooth, flawless surface if it's installed correctly. Unfortunately, it so often isn't, and improper installation of sheetrock is just one of the many issues we resolve when called for drywall repair in Raleigh, NC.
Other common issues we fix include:
Nail Pops
Nails or drywall screws that protrude from your walls are normal and usually occur due to the natural expansion and contraction of the wooden planks they're secured in. As the wood "breathes," it squeezes the nails outward until they are visible through the surface sheets of drywall. We'll need to remove these before re-installing the sheet, plastering, and painting for a flawless finish.
The nail extraction process can be done using a pry bar or a nail puller, ensuring that the drywall remains undamaged. Once the nails are removed, we can proceed with the repairs and restoration to achieve a seamless result.
Holes
Holes in sheetrock are quite common and are the result of punctures made by you, your pets, or insects. Holes can be as small as a pinprick and as large as the end of a sofa – trust us, we've seen it all!
If you have a hole in your drywall, then you know how unsightly it is. Depending on its location, it may be an eyesore to your guests or your family when eating dinner, watching TV, or brushing your teeth in the evening. In any case, a hole in your drywall will let out the temperate air from your home's interior, lowering your energy efficiency and raising your energy bills. This hole is also the perfect portal for insects and rodents to crawl through. Yikes! The easy solution is to call us for drywall repair in Raleigh, NC.

Water Damage
Having water damage on your drywall can lead to bigger issues for your home. From discoloration and stains to structural instability, it's important to address water damage as soon as possible. If left untreated, it can result in mold growth and compromise the structural integrity of the affected areas.
To address drywall that is water-damaged, we'll need to cut away the affected section and patch it with a new piece. The correct water damage repair process will leave a flawless finish without any visible seams or mesh. Taking the appropriate steps to repair this type of damage, we'll plaster over the surface, sand it down, and paint it with the existing color of your wall.
