Our Drywall Repair Process

Quality drywall repair requires the right technique for each type of damage. For small holes, we use setting-type compounds that cure hard and do not shrink, building up the repair in thin layers and sanding smooth between coats. For larger damaged areas, we cut out the damaged section, install new drywall with proper backing support, tape all seams with mesh or paper tape, and apply multiple coats of joint compound for a seamless finish.

Texture matching is where many drywall repairs fail, but our technicians excel at replicating existing wall textures. Whether your home has orange peel, knockdown, skip trowel, or smooth walls, we have the tools and expertise to match the surrounding texture perfectly. Once our repair is complete and painted, it becomes invisible to the eye.

How much does drywall repair cost in Orange County?

A small hole under four inches is $250 to $350. A basketball-sized repair runs $400 to $600, including patching and matching the existing wall texture as closely as possible. Larger sections are priced at $8 to $12 per square foot depending on how much of the wall is involved and how much finishing it takes to disappear. Paint and touch-up are quoted separately from the repair itself. What moves the number: the texture on the existing wall and how hard it is to match, whether there is water damage behind the surface, ceiling work versus wall work, and how many separate repairs are being done in one visit. Small repairs are often best grouped with other work at the property. Patching compound, tape, texture and labor are included; only the paint is separate. Small repairs fall under our $300 to $500 minimum and are best grouped with other work at the property, and every repair carries a two-year workmanship warranty.

How does Onyx GC do the work?

A repair starts by cutting the damage back to something square and solid, because a patch is only as good as its edges. Backing goes in behind it, the piece is fitted, and the seams are taped and coated in several passes, each one wider and sanded flat between coats. Then the texture: orange peel, knockdown or smooth, matched to what is already on the wall, which is the step most repairs fail at. Furniture and floors are covered before any of it starts, and dust is kept to the work area. Paint and touch-up are quoted separately. At the end of each day we clean up, and at completion we walk it with you.
